Business Simulation
A major element in our work fall quarter involves a business simulation, Foundation. For the simulation, students will be divided into teams of four or five persons; each team will manage a company that produces electronic sensors. Teams will compete in a dynamic market, and each team will make decisions about its company’s production, marketing, research and development, financing and how to manage its human resources. The simulation will give students hands-on experience with the knowledge and skills they are developing in the classroom. Winning is not a requirement for award of credit or even for a favorable evaluation. But students will be given opportunities, individually and as teams, to demonstrate what they have learned from the simulation, win or lose. In addition to subscribing to the simulation, students will need MS Excel, version 97 or newer (available in the labs on campus) and a current version of Netscape or Explorer.
