Title Advanced Performance Measurement: Concepts and Cases (for Topic Module Managerial Accounting, elective courses)
Description Modern firms have access to more data than ever before. Being able to organize and analyse their data efficiently is thus crucial for them to be successful. This course will help students to learn how to apply empirical methods to measure and evaluate performance of actions, individuals, and corporate functions. The content of the course revolves around two core aspects. First, students will use managerial case studies to see how management problems can be solved using data and empirical methods. To do this, students will learn to run empirical analyses in practice, using STATA during the course. Second, students will read and critically discuss the most recent managerial accounting research on performance measurement. The goal of this class is to teach students to use data to answer practical business questions, but also to be able to identify typical challenges surrounding the drawing of causal inferences.
