Final Project

Applied Business Project - Over the course of the semester, students will be asked to select a current business that they can examine and obtain information on in regards to their data collection strategies as well as how they approach the legal topics covered in this course. This examination should be thorough and objective in nature with the student taking the role of an outside legal consultant who is observing the business. It is encouraged that the business that is ultimately selected is an accepting party of this investigation and is willing to provide the answers to any questions that may arise. The project however can still be done on a business even if they are based elsewhere or are unwilling to cooperate since most of this information is publically accessible online.  More information on the project will be provided in class and students will have the entire semester to finish the work.

The project will be graded on the following and will be considered part of the final and make up 20% of your overall grade. 100 total points possible.

1.      Business Analysis – The main objective of this project is directed towards the analysis of a business by observing its structure and operations. The student will be assessed on how effectively they observed these points within the organization.(30 points)

2.      Legal Research – Once the business is selected and analyzed then the student will be required to research the various laws that relate to the individual organization covering the topics that were demonstrated in this course. This research into past law and cases will be judged on whether or not the major applicable cases were used and if the findings were applied correctly. (30 points)

3.      Application and integration of concepts learned in class – the project is part of the final grade and thus should tie all of the instruction and legal concepts together. (25 points)

4.      Suggestions Provided – Students throughout the examination are looking for issues or potential legal problems within the business. You will not only be asked to locate these problems or points of failure but are also required to suggest changes or methods to alleviate these areas. These suggestions will be evaluated based on their effectiveness and their overall ability to be adopted by the business. (15 points)
