Now that classes have started (indeed, it’s already day two) I figured I should share the courses I’ve chosen to take this semester.
Negotiation
Project Management
Marketing Strategy
Business and Economic Forecasting
Public Finance
Why, you might ask, have I chosen to take these classes? That’s a fantastic question. I signed up for Negotiation because I a) want to work on my negotiation skills, and b) I’d heard rave reviews of the course. Project Management interests me greatly, is being taught by a professor I like, and it meets some arbitrary requirement set by the university for “integrative electives.” Marketing Strategy is also taught by a professor I like (and learn from) and I’m enjoying his view of marketing. Business and Economic Forecasting is taught by a professor I admire and pretty much everyone wants to take his class. Finally, Public Finance I’m taking because I a) needed a fifth class, b) have friends taking it, and c) want to give finance another try without having to stress about “corporate valuation”.
So that’s that. I’ll keep y’all posted as this semester unfolds.
