Notes

【Course Objectives】

In Advanced Business Project (ABP), students apply the business and intercultural communication knowledge they have learned in their studies to solve real-world business problems provided by client companies. Upon completion of this course, students will be able to perform a variety of tasks related to project management, communication within international teams, and the demonstration of leadership capabilities:

-Demonstrate leadership as a competent member of a diverse, international team
-Develop professional-quality solutions while making the best use of limited resources
-Effectively argue solutions to specific business problems
-Communicate team ideas through the most appropriate methods

【Course Contents】

This is an all-English, student centered and project-based course. This course requires students to work collaboratively in international teams, carrying out research to understand the needs of the client, before developing solutions to propose to the client.

Students are required to analyze business problems, develop solutions to these problems, and professionally present their solutions to the client for evaluation and feedback.

The specific class content changes every year depending on the needs of the client. However, past clients have asked for proposals related to:

-developing a branding and marketing strategy for light to heavy duty trucks to key customers in the Japanese market
-developing a digital training strategy for the human resources training academy of a vehicle manufacturer
-examining customer attitudes and experiences for a key athletic shoe and clothing manufacturer

The example course schedule below presents an example of how the course may be structured. Generally students will meet with client representatives 2 – 4 times during the class.
