1. General statements
1.1. What is a coursework?
The IBS programme aims to educate specialists able to undertake a theoretical and applied research and to propose an original solution of an economic problem. A coursework is an essential part of that programme.
A coursework is an individual study of a topic which has a scientific and practical importance. It assumes a deeper insight into a theoretical issue and a sort of exploration of the empirical evidence. It requires a lot of additional reading, gathering and analysing statistics, systematising facts, generalising and making conclusion. Gathering information is an obligation of students, not supervisors’. A corsework gives the opportunity to show the knowledge accumulated over the years of study and to demonstrate the analitical capability and creativity in applying the knowledge to business-related topics.
