Seminar in Financial Accounting
In this seminar, students autonomously prepare short research papers (theses) on financial reporting and financial statement analysis topics. At the end of the seminar, the theses are presented to the class.
This seminar aims at providing insights into current topics that are academically interesting and practically relevant for company managers, investors, analysts, auditors or standard setters, by exposing you to recent, state-of-the-art research in the area of financial accounting and reporting.
Another objective of this seminar is to introduce you to thesis writing in general, as well as more specifically in the area of financial reporting. It gives you the opportunity to focus in detail on a specific area in financial reporting, while teaching you the fundamentals of scientific inquiry in this field. Gaining skills and experience in conducting research will equip you with essential expertise for your subsequent Bachelor (and Master) thesis.
A further benefit of the seminar is that you will train your presentation skills, an important competency for executives and academics alike.
