About the Course

This course discusses costs and business practices to establish the cost of a product. The concept of time value of money (TVM) is developed to determine the present and future values of a series of cash flows. TVM principles are then applied to personal finances and retirement planning. This is a practical course that uses spreadsheets to better prepare learners in engineering and science for a career in industry. This course can be taken for academic credit as part of CU Boulder’s Master of Engineering in Engineering Management (ME-EM) degree offered on the Coursera platform. The ME-EM is designed to help engineers, scientists, and technical professionals move into leadership and management roles in the engineering and technical sectors. With performance-based admissions and no application process, the ME-EM is ideal for individuals with a broad range of undergraduate education and/or professional experience.

This was a very practical and useful course. The knowledge gained is very helpful in daily operations in engineering price modelling .

Course at such is good. However, to submit an excel assignment in csv.file is a total disaster. After 50 attemps and through an external converter I was able to submit. Many students had this problem but apparently nothing is done to resolve this obstacle.

very well put together coarse. A few of the test / quiz questions needed a little more for front thought on them.

the first half of this course was useful. the second half, devoted to personal finance, should be in a personal finance course. it does not really belong in this course, and was a waste of my time.

granted, some people might find it very useful, but it should be a separate course since the content is not really relevant to the title of this course.

submitting the .csv for the assignment was confusing and really not useful, since the equations and values were all included. basically, there is little learning when someone can just copy and paste.

Good materials but grading is terrible. Had a lot of troubles with week 5 assignment. It is hopeless waiting for peer review to complete the course. Please help

I classify myself as a novice in this coursework and the Professor did an excellent job of conveying the key principles and also eliciting my interest in the subject matter. I came away with a new appreciation for my current job tasks and look forward to using my enhanced skills in the future. To boot, I have a better understanding of my personal finances. I've already started the second class in this certification and enjoy the material and the Professor's teaching style.

This is a great course that provides insight into finance from a business perspective as well as applying your learnings to real life scenarios. I really enjoyed the instructor. He is easy to follow, explains difficult concepts with ease and breaks down the course so that is not overwhelming and understandable.

Excellent course with practical assignments. I took this course for credit. The final exam goes over everything in the course, so make sure you understand the mathematical analysis and do the spreadsheet exercises to do well if you take this course for credit with CU.

I loved this course. I learned a lot about product costs and investment analysis. It was challenging for me to understand how to invest, but thanks to the guidance of the professor, I got it, and I feel much more confident in these topics now.
