Critical Analysis in Business is designed to deepen students' understanding of discipline and field-specific epistemological approaches and literary practices.  It develops student capacity to engage with knowledge from the business domain at a deeper level through examination of evidence and argument.  This is achieved through opportunities to develop the research and critical review skills required to complete academic tasks (e.g. empirical research, reports, review essays or case studies) integral to advanced business knowledge. Students practice developing different types of argument through an iterative writing process, from problem conceptualisation through to the final argument.  Graduates of this course have an advanced understanding of critical thinking as it applies to problems of concept and practice in business.The course provides students with business writing skills that will enable them to complete academic tasks for courses within the Master of Business.
