INTBUS 7016OL - Managing People Across Borders (M)

Online - Quadmester 4 - 2015

This course prepares graduate students for understanding the critical role that human resource plays in an organisation operating internationally as well as key variations of business across countries such as policy and corporate governance systems. Students will analyse the origins of differences in human resource management practices and the pertinent challenges for managing business across borders, for instance in business negotiations or expatriates' management. The broad content themes include management issues for business enterprises which spread across national boundaries. Topics include organisational architecture; recruitment, selection, performance evaluation and remuneration; managerial training, leadership development; industrial relations; management style; cultural relations; legal aspects; trading patterns and technology. This inter-disciplinary course is taught collaboratively, using team-based learning, case study and country risk analyses. The course thereby provides students with the opportunity to develop skills in comparative analysis, and focuses on the firm's internal context.

Student Feedback

The University places a high priority on approaches to learning and teaching that enhance the student experience. Feedback is sought from students in a variety of ways including on-going engagement with staff, the use of online discussion boards and the use of Student Experience of Learning and Teaching (SELT) surveys as well as GOS surveys and Program reviews.

SELTs are an important source of information to inform individual teaching practice, decisions about teaching duties, and course and program curriculum design. They enable the University to assess how effectively its learning environments and teaching practices facilitate student engagement and learning outcomes. Under the current SELT Policy (http://www.adelaide.edu.au/policies/101/) course SELTs are mandated and must be conducted at the conclusion of each term/semester/trimester for every course offering. Feedback on issues raised through course SELT surveys is made available to enrolled students through various resources (e.g. MyUni). In addition aggregated course SELT data is available.

Fraud Awareness

Students are reminded that in order to maintain the academic integrity of all programs and courses, the university has a zero-tolerance approach to students offering money or significant value goods or services to any staff member who is involved in their teaching or assessment. Students offering lecturers or tutors or professional staff anything more than a small token of appreciation is totally unacceptable, in any circumstances. Staff members are obliged to report all such incidents to their supervisor/manager, who will refer them for action under the university's student’s disciplinary procedures.

The University of Adelaide is committed to regular reviews of the courses and programs it offers to students. The University of Adelaide therefore reserves the right to discontinue or vary programs and courses without notice. Please read the important information contained in the disclaimer.
