GDBA 7102 - Exploration of Tsinghua University

The course stems from the research, thinking and epiphany of administrators of the college, to expose students to cutting edge academic research and scholarship at Tsinghua University and elsewhere.

Staying at the forefront, this course rediscovers higher-level scientific research resources and the cultural resources of Tsinghua University, relying on its status as a comprehensive, research-based, and open university. Based on China's national context and the need to improve the local education system in economics and management, it focuses on the frontiers of engineering, the characteristics of science and industry in the information society, and the consequent changes to the rules of economy and management.

GDBA 7209 - Service Operations Management

(1 cr; A-F only; offered Every Fall, Spring & Summer)

Services represent the largest segment of most industrial economies and an important growing segment of most global regions. China is experiencing tremendous growth in its service economy, with a near doubling in its service economy during the past two decades. The focus of executive attention is strongly shifting toward services, with increasing importance of service industries such as travel, finance, health care, media, and publishing. Despite its importance in the economy, service sector productivity growth generally lags that of manufacturing. A stronger focus on managing service operations is necessary to maintain local and globally competitive businesses. In addition, the effects of increasingly sophisticated consumers, deregulation, technology changes, and expanding global services combine to create new challenges. To succeed, business executives must have the skills to lead their service managers to allocate resources, design effective processes, analyze and improve operating practices, and apply new technologies. This course examines these opportunities.

GDBA 7888 - Thesis

(12 cr; S-N only; offered Every Fall, Spring & Summer; may be repeated for 24 credits; may be repeated 2 times)
