This course provides a basis for the theoretical analysis of many fundamental problems and contemporary issues in the area of financial accounting and reporting. The readings, research paper assignments/presentations, and a term project that requires the submission of an empirical research proposal provide an appreciation for the development of theories and empirical research in the area of financial accounting and reporting. A statistics course that covers multiple regression techniques should be a prerequisite to this course.

This course explores reverse logistics/closed-loop supply chains with the goal of helping academics and professionals develop knowledge and expertise in this area. Reverse logistics refers to all managerial operations related to reuse or recycle of products, components or materials. Closed- loop supply chains stand for all operations of dealing with items that are no longer desired or can no longer be used by their users. PREREQUISITES: GS/MSMG6550 3.0 Fundamentals of SCM, GS/MSMG6510 3.00 Analytics for Supply Chain Management.

This course consists of a series of meetings in which students discuss how to develop their Major Research Paper (MRP) or Workplace Project (WPP) proposal, as well as to find the right supervisor in the specialization field, research their topic, and write their MRP. Students may present their MRP/WPP proposals to their fellow students as well as faculty. The course spans the length of the program and requires GS/MSMG 6010 and GS/MSMG 6020 as co-requisites/pre-requisites.
