BA 302 - Measuring Business Performance

(3.00 cr.)

Prerequisite: BA 301 . Builds upon the content from Foundations of Business (BA 301) and provides students with the knowledge needed to measure business performance. Increasingly, financial performance is not the only measure of business success. Because businesses can serve as catalysts for social good, socially responsible decisions have a significant impact on business performance. This course provides students with the tools needed to measure business success from the standpoint of the traditional financial model as well as from the aspects associated with principled leadership that lead to socially responsible decisions. Applied decision making continues to be practiced in this course so that students can increase their business knowledge and skills regarding situations that simulate actual business situations. Enrollment requires application. The course is part of the Loyola Business Institute. (Summer only)
