Title Proseminar Managerial Accounting
Description The seminar has two main goals. First, participants will gain insight into how new technologies, such as AI and data analytics, are changing management control systems. Specifically, the seminar addresses (1) how new technologies discussed in recent literature are changing man-agement control systems, (2) what biases may influence how employees or managers adopt these technologies, and (3) what (mis)incentives these technologies might create. Second, participants will learn, through a concrete example, how to design and conduct an experiment that investigates a specific research question and how to analyze experimental data. Addition-ally, the seminar will equip students with important quantitative research method skills, pre-paring participants for their final theses (bachelor's thesis and potentially master’s thesis in the future).
