Minimum requirements and assessment criteria

The three key objectives of this course are to provide the students with:
1. An understanding of different theories of the negotiation process and the application of these theories to a variety of settings. The theories to be covered include rational models of bargaining behaviour that have been developed in economics and decision sciences, and cognitive and behavioural theories that investigate how bargaining behaviour may diverge from the predictions of the rational models;
2. An opportunity to develop their bargaining skills and apply the theoretical concepts covered in class in a variety of negotiating exercises and cases; and
3. Exposure to new communication and computer technologies that are used in negotiation analysis and support, and in the conducting of negotiations in e-business and beyond.

Examination topics

This lecture puts an emphasis on active participation throughout. Multiple negotiation simulations and in class discussions ensure that the learning process includes practical skills as well as theoretical concepts.

Reading list

All relevant readings will be provided via Moodle platform
