This course introduces students to the structure and practice of modern business in Ghana within the global economic context. The emphasis is on developing an understanding of how the various functions of business, namely production, marketing (including international), accounting, finance, operations and management information systems are integrated to provide competitively priced, ‗value added‘ products and services that customers need/want. Students will have opportunities to develop and practice critical skills such as teamwork; analysis and problem solving; entrepreneurship; and critical strategic thinking, which are the basis of personal and organizational success in today‘s dynamic business world. The course also covers many facets of business and provides the student with a general knowledge of the modern business environment.
