Ying Ying JIANG

The course studies the evolution of business and management from a comparative perspective. In Seminar I, we will discuss how major trends such as the digital transformation, SDGs and demographic change impact industries and companies taking a global perspective. The specific research topics will be provided by the instructor. In Seminar II and III, students conduct case studies of companies from specific industries in Japan by applying methods and techniques acquired in Seminar I. The case studies will enable students to gain a better understanding of Japanese business and management, and will equip them with the skills necessary to analyze companies.

Seminar IV and V are for students who wish to complete the course by writing a graduation thesis or a graduation report. Students are expected and encouraged to proceed to Seminar IV and V. 

The classes will be conducted in English. However, if necessary, explanations will be given in Japanese.
