General requirements
The course will be particularly valuable to students who plan to pursue careers in equity research, asset management, and investment banking. The course is suitable for students with little prior exposure to accounting. However, students who have already taken several accounting courses will also find the unique blend of academic evidence and real-world applications novel and appealing. The course is designed for a diverse international audience and therefore emphasizes differences between international accounting standards (IFRS) and US GAAP when appropriate.
