About BUS 490 Business Seminar

The BUS 490 Business Seminar course is the Noonan School of Business senior capstone course. The content of the course remains largely the same as what you'd take during the Spring semester at Loras, with some important modifications:

Standard content:

• you'll read Good to Great by Jim Collins to gain insight into strategic planning
• you will complete all the items listed on the course syllabus (links for all course material are on the eLearn platform)

Plus these modifications to leverage our global experience in Ireland:

• you'll prepare as you would for a "professional business trip", in this case, an international trip
• you will attend lectures by business professionals while in Ireland
• you will conduct yourself in a professional way while in Ireland - this is NOT a vacation, it's a business trip so you'll WORK
• you will have time to relax on the weekend and after the course is done (you'll finish your May term in Dublin following the conclusion of the course - you may want to travel on before heading back to the US)
