This course introduces students to the main functional areas of business and demonstrates how these areas interact to produce products and/or services in an economically viable manner. The course also assists students in developing an understanding of the modern corporate enterprise, in both the Canadian context and in a broader, global context. The primary pedagogical tool in COMM 103 is a computer-based management simulation. Through this simulation and complementary class activities, students gain a further understanding of the tasks, practices, and responsibilities of the modern manager.
