Practicum

What issues keep CFOs awake at night? Students find out in the practicum, a series of weekly, three-hour sessions, in which they hash out solutions with senior corporate finance practitioners who, themselves, have "lived the case." Students gain insights into the realities—often idiosyncrasies—of financial decision-making.
Topics include:

Raising capital; debt and equity—public and private
Strategic acquisitions; divestitures; joint ventures
Risk management; capital-structure strategy
Restructuring and reorganizing
