Course Description
This course provides students with a comprehensive introduction to the legal framework that governs the creation, operation, and dissolution of business organizations. We’ll explore the different types of business entities—such as sole proprietorships, partnerships, and corporations—and learn how to select the right entity based on specific business needs. Students will also examine the legal issues that arise throughout a business’s lifecycle, from formation to operation to termination, including contracts, liabilities, and disputes.
Throughout the course, we’ll evaluate the legal responsibilities of key stakeholders, including agents, partners, and corporate officers and directors, and how their actions impact a business's success or failure. We’ll also propose legal terms to be included in essential business documents, such as articles of incorporation, partnership agreements, and bylaws, to address common organizational challenges. By the end of the course, students will have a broad understanding of how businesses function from a legal perspective.
No prior knowledge of law is required, though a general understanding of business concepts will be helpful.
