Information

Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung

COURSE OBJECTIVE:
This course enables students to deepen their knowledge in the topics introduced throughout the sequence of Corporate Finance courses. The second aim of the course is to help students come up with a suitable topic for their master thesis in Corporate Finance. For this reason the course is only recommended for students who are in their final stage of their master studies.

Art der Leistungskontrolle und erlaubte Hilfsmittel

COURSE FORMAT:
The course will be based on students’ presentations, term papers, written peer feedback and in class discussions. The course covers seminal papers in different areas of Corporate Finance, but is far from being exhaustive and has a bias towards more contemporary empirical work. Students may propose other topics within the realm of corporate finance or banking.
A kick-off meeting is held in March in order to form groups and allocate topics. The course is held in English.
