About Financial forecasting and reporting course
This course examines how public projects are evaluated using cost-benefit analysis. Students learn how interest rates and stock and bond prices are determined. Techniques for preparing departmental budgets for engineering cost centers and pro forma reports for profit centers are introduced. Students then work with corporate financial statements to evaluate a company’s financial health, including recent environmental, social, and governance (ESG) performance. This course can be taken for credit toward CU Boulder’s Master of Engineering in Engineering Management (ME-EM) program, offered on Coursera.
