NYU Stern classes

NYU Stern classes

The undergraduate business school of New York University is the Leonard N. Stern School of Business. Stern offers a variety of classes, some of which are listed below.

Contents

Accounting

Principles of Financial Accounting

This is a core class so all students are required to take it. It is also the first class in the accounting series; it is a pre-requisite for Principles of Managerial Accounting and hence many of the other accounting classes as well. The class code is C10.0001 and can be found under "Accounting--Undergraduate, Stern" in Albert.

This class focuses on the fundamentals of financial statements generated for users outside of the company itself. The classes are currently taught following the GAAP accounting standard.

The textbook used is "Introduction to Financial Accounting, Custom Edition for 10.00001" by Pearson Custom Publishing. There is usually also a case book, from which students are required to complete case studies throughout the semester. The cases deal with financial data of real and often well-recognized companies, and test the students' ability to apply textbook knowledge to these scenarios.

Principles of Managerial Accounting

This is a core class so all students are required to take it. It is a 2 credit, half semester course. It focuses on the analysis of accounting statements for internal purposes.

Economics

Microeconomics

This is a core class so all students are required to take it. Once only offered in CAS, now Stern has its own undergraduate microeconomics class. It is the equivalent of Intermediate Microeconomics in CAS. With comparison to Economic Principles II (in CAS), this class is much more math-intensive, relying more heavily on understanding the mathematical principles behind economic concepts such as supply and demand. This class also has a recitation component, which usually consists of the TA reviewing past homework problems. With that in mind, homework problems are relatively useful to reinforcing these concepts.

Finance

Foundations of Financial Markets

This is a core class so all students are required to take it.

Information Systems

Information Technology in Business and Technology

This is a core class so all students are required to take it.

Management and Organization

Management and Organizational Analysis

This is a core class so all students are required to take it.

International Studies Program

This is a core class so all students are required to take it. It requires junior standing, and is only offered in the spring semester. Students usually have a choice of one of three locations: Asia, Europe or South America. The Class of 2010 just came back from three locations within these places: Hong Kong, Budapest or Buenos Aires.

Marketing

Introduction to Marketing

This is a core class so all students are required to take it.

Statistics

Statistics for Business Control

This is a core class so all students are required to take it. This is the four-credit class. If you took the AP Statistics exam in high school and scored at least a 4, you are eligible to take the statistics placement exam. If you pass, you can skip this class and take Regression and Forecasting Models only. Another added bonus is that skipping this class will give you an extra 4 Stern elective credits.

Regression and Forecasting Models

Statistics for Business Control and Regression and Forecasting Models

This is a core class so all students are required to take it. This is the combination of the two- and four-credit classes, effectively making it six-credits.

Social Impact Core

No matter what major, you must take these classes.

Business and its Publics

This is a core class that all students are required to take. It is only offered in the spring semester, and is generally taken by freshmen. Like most classes, Business & its Publics (BIP) meets twice a week. Unlike most classes, each meeting is divided into either Inquiry or Discourse. In addition to the Inquiry and Discourse classes every week, there is a Plenary session in which all BIP students must attend. In recent years the plenary session has taken place on Monday evenings from 6:30-8:30pm.

Organizational Communication and its Social Context

As a core class, all Stern undergraduate students are required to take this course. They learn how organizations communicate with multiple (types of) audiences, focusing on the interconnections between business and society. The course uses the stakeholder model of the corporation to introduce the strategic implications of communication for modern organizations. Students apply what they learn about communication strategy in a series of assignments, which involve oral and written projects, informative and persuasive purposes, presentation delivery techniques, visual communication analysis and practice, and team communications.

It is a popular choice for Stern-UC students to take at one of NYU's global campuses: http://www.nyu.edu/global.html
