We had two sessions today. The first was on 'Accounting for Reporting & Control'. Prof Yong-Chul Shin is a no-nonsense Teacher. Strictly no email or web-surfing during class. And plenty of reasons on why we should be listening to him. Overall I liked the approach. Its fast-paced but everything's explained.

Prof James Murtagh took our 'Economics & Institutions' class. The last time I was forced to study economics was during at College, and I absolutely hated it. So the thought of studying it again wasn't pleasant at all. Jim started the class with asking us to write 5 words we associated with Economics. And 5 things we expected from this course. Then he asked to discuss this stuff in teams, and scribble the economics words under the headings 'Macroeconomics' and 'Microeconomics'. In a shortwhile the board was covered with terms that sounded familiar, to stuff I knew I'd only find in textbooks. But the basic idea was to get us thinking about the subject. I was kinda happy because I am still in no mood for serious economic theory yet. I also liked the fact that my teacher went to Westpoint.
