Purchasing Course Reading Packages and/or Textbooks for Post-Core Modules

Some instructors require a textbook and/or course packages for their module.  It is your responsibility to check the outline for each module you are taking to find out if there are any required materials for you to purchase.   

 The MBA & ECM Programs Office strives to post up-to-date course outlines, as soon as they are provided by the instructors.  NOTE:  Please double-check that the date on each outline is for the current year prior to purchasing any textbook(s).  Some outlines may be from the previous year and instructors, textbooks and/or editions may change from year to year.
