All subjects have attendance
requirements equivalent to three hours per week over one semester. Subject

and teaching resources available.

major study program and may be taken from anywhere in the university. Relevant
discipline areas include accounting, banking and finance, computing, human
resource management, manufacturing management, international trade, management
and marketing. The foreign business language program is available only at the
