The course will assess a student’s cognitive and intellectual growth in their major and also the overall academic learning experience. The course will provide an opportunity for students to integrate and applied learning from their academic career in a comprehensive manner. The capstone provides an opportunity for students to integrate and apply knowledge from their academic studies; through the comprehensive evaluation of core curriculum of finance and accounting, economics, marketing, management, human resource, and all learned fields. Further Detail on Course Content (if needed) In this course, students apply the knowledge and skills used in previous courses to the business planning process required for new venture development. The course consequently builds on the knowledge gathered during you years as a Business student. The course requires students to integrate their knowledge and skills acquired throughout the major. It gives them the ability to work on an extended business project while gathering very practical experience. This involves critiquing business plans and using practical research tools and appropriate analytical approaches to work through components of plans of their own. Throughout the semester, student teams present ideas to both peers and experts from the community who provide feedback and insight into what it takes start a successful business Students will be required to work on a complex and real-life problem related to Business studies. In doing so, the Capstone makes the link between the academic discourse and the world thereafter. The course is a rigorous team-based and project-oriented course. This course requires a high level of independence, time- and information management as well as an impeccable level of professionalism and work ethics. The nature of the Capstone course as a Senior Seminar requires a high level of independent thought, academic maturity, intellectual curiosity and exchange of ideas. A mature approach to teamwork, efficient division of labour, adherence to clear time lines and deadlines and the early resolution of potential conflicts between team members is essential. Students will have to bring a laptop to each class. The teaching method of the Capstone is based on the presumption of a maximum level of independence of thought and work. By week 2 of the course, students will be divided into groups of 3-4 students. Students will remain within these groups in order to work on the tasks. The Capstone requires a high level of commitment, diligent and continuous work (i.e., please work on your assignments regularly each week and do not leave until the last minute), organizational skills and planning as well as profound dedication to your work as an individual as well as member of your group. This means, you should display an attitude of strong professionalism when it comes to sticking to agreed group deadlines, division of labour and quality of work. For your individual contributions, similarly, the highest standards and commitment is needed. 2 Work Load Expectation The usual 6 ECTS Vesalius College work-load expectations per course require you to spend on average at least 10 hours per week across 15 weeks. However, since the Capstone is a 13-weeks course (Weeks 14 and 15 are provided as free time so that students are not distracted from their obligations of sitting final exams in other courses) your average weekly time commitment should be at least 11,5 hours per week (i.e. if classes take place, then you should spend at least 8.5 hours in addition to your classes). This number is an indication of average work-load – there will of course be peak-times (for example when you finish your papers, the final product, prepare for the final presentation etc.) and lower-times – the key is to plan ahead each week and keep the 11.5h average per week in mind.

  • Economics and Business Studies - Curriculum Intent, Implementation and Impact
    NHGS - Economics and Business Studies - Curriculum Intent, Implementation and Impact Intent (Aims and purpose) We aim to create the very best Economics and Business studies students. The aim of the Economics curriculum is to develop students’ understanding of how the local / national / global economy works through analysing economic issues, problems and institutions that affect everyday life.The aim of the Business studies curriculum is to equip students with the appropriate knowledge and skills needed to develop their employability and identify business problems and opportunities. We do this by quality first teaching which ensures students understand underlying Economic and Business theory which students apply to a variety of familiar and unfamiliar case studies. We want students to be able to think analytically, reach logical conclusions based on data, and make judgements on future changes to markets and the economy. Our curriculum at NHGS goes far beyond what is taught in lessons, for whilst we want students to achieve the very best examination results possible, we believe our curriculum goes beyond what is examinable. Our curriculum in Economics and Business studies supports the ethos statement of the school. Students are constantly challenged to work collaboratively and think independently when engaging in all lessons and class debates. Through teacher modelling, we encourage our students to demonstrate manners, respect and tolerance in Economics and Business studies lessons. This allows students to express themselves in a confident manner. Lesson materials are engaging to promote topical discussion and encourage students to develop an enquiring mind. As a knowledge based curriculum we believe that knowledge underpins and enables the application of skills; both are entwined.
