ICS , Graduate School of International Corporate Strategy
[Term 2] Intensive Writing (R. Davies) (2008/Term 1&2 (Fall&Winter))

Many of the classes that students take at ICS require a significant amount of writing in the form of term papers, reports, plans of action, and so forth. Intensive Writing is designed to provide students with support, instruction, and practice in completing these writing tasks.

During the Foundation Week, all students entering ICS are required to complete a writing assessment in order to identify those who are most in need of assistance in improving their writing skills in English (these students are required to take Intensive Writing; for others, participation is elective). Student writing samples will be assessed according to a multi-trait profile which provides diagnostic information along a spectrum of five categories: organization, language use and grammar, content, vocabulary, and mechanics. A detailed error analysis will also be conducted on the writing samples to determine specific areas that should be targeted for instruction. The lessons in this course are thus based on students’ writing needs, but will also address many other issues that are important in successfully completing coursework at ICS.
Course Structure

This course will meet once a week in four-hour sessions (2 x 2 hours: 13:30-15:30; 15:45-17:45) on Wednesday afternoons during Term 2.

The course is based on the premise that “you learn to write by writing,” so written assignments are an integral part of each and every class. Students will also be assigned longer writing assignments for homework every week, which will be corrected and evaluated in detail by their instructor.

The classes are structured in an integrated manner, with the content of the lessons linked to one another as much as possible. The focus of instruction will be both “top down” and “bottom up”; in other words, the emphasis will be on top-level organizational patterns and structures on the one hand, and sentence-level grammar and syntax on the other. In addition, various types of writing that are important for MBA students will be stressed, including summaries, paraphrases, critiques, and so forth.

ICS , Graduate School of International Corporate Strateg

The Graduate School of International Corporate Strategy (ICS) offers students the opportunity to earn an MBA degree in International Business Strategy at Hitotsubashi University. In order to meet the requirements of an MBA degree, students must take a minimum of 66 credits during the First Year. This requirement applies to students in both the One-Year Program and the Two-Year Program at Hitotsubashi ICS.

Course work in the MBA program consists of two-credit or four-credit courses. Individual classes are 120 minutes in duration. Therefore, typically, a two-credit course is a four-month-long course that meets once a week for 2.0 hours per week, or a two-month-long course that meets twice a week for 4.0 hours per week. A four-credit course is typically a four-month-long course that meets twice a week for 4.0 hours per week. Classes are scheduled in three or four time slots: once in the morning (9:45 am start) during Term 1, and twice in the morning (8:30 am start) during Term 2 (Winter), Term 3 (Spring), and Term 4 (Summer), and twice in the afternoon during all the terms.

Students in the Two-Year Program have the option of custom-building their second year curriculum, which is basically comprised of activities that apply what they have learned in the First Year to the real world. They consult with faculty members in choosing from a wide array of options, such as participating in a company internship program, spending a semester overseas in a student exchange program, developing a business plan for starting up a new venture, conducting an individual research project, or searching for post-MBA job opportunities.

MFIN7017
Advanced Option Pricing Model
6-7
Tse, Raymond
General Information
This course brings together the practical and theoretical knowledge taught in the other derivatives and risk management courses in the MFIN program to introduce some of the state-of-the-art option pricing models. The course dwells on the original insights of various authors for exotic option pricing and option pricing models with volatility smiles. In addition to the plain-vanilla European option model, the course discusses the continuous and discrete barrier, lookback, Asian, American, excursion option pricing models. It also discusses the jumps and stochastic volatility option pricing models, including the latest option pricing models under Levy processes. Although this course highlights the theoretical and technical motivation of the various models, its delivery requires some hands-on knowledge of MatLab programming. Students finished this course will be conversant to the latest development and technology in option pricing.
