Developing And Implementing An Undergraduate Finance Capstone Course For Both Onground And Online Course Delivery

Abstract

Capstone courses provide an opportunity to integrate several topics and to help prepare students for the real world. This paper examines the process of developing an undergraduate finance capstone course for both onground (face-to-face) and online course delivery. The process begins with the determination of the core competencies employers require of recent finance undergraduate students. Several of these core competencies are addressed in this paper, along with the challenges of assessing the competencies of team work and oral presentations skills online.
