Together, these two courses provide students with the tools needed to understand and address the important problems facing management accountants today. We will promote the use of quantitative techniques and stress the importance of considering qualitative factors. Most managerial decisions are made with less than perfect information. Accordingly, we will also discuss analysis of information under uncertainty, an essential characteristic facing modern business practitioners.
