International Finance

+ Overview
The course uses a blended format: some of the lectures are pre-recorded so that we can allocate more time to discussions and experiential learning. Apart from lectures, the course workload involves several short quizzes and two assignments. Most quizzes can be retaken multiple times so that students can master the concepts discussed in the course. The first assignment involves identifying whether a currency is overvalued or undervalued—a concept discussed in detail in the course. The second assignment involves articulating three takeaway learnings from the course and discussing how they apply to your own business.
