BUSI 431: ADVANCED STRATEGIC MANAGEMENT
Fall 2026 · Section 001 · CRN 15937
This course builds upon, and extends, the foundational strategy concepts covered in the core Strategic Management course. We shall examine how companies can achieve a competitive advantage through innovation, geographic or product market expansion, as well as expansion into new businesses through diversification or vertical integration. Since companies pursue these opportunities not only through organic means, but also increasingly through mergers or acquisitions, the course will also examine the benefits and challenges associated with these alternate modes and how to manage them effectively. The course will conclude by studying the process by which companies develop their strategy as well the actions they need to take in order to execute that strategy so as to achieve the desired results.
