Number of Students
In this course, you will have the opportunity to participate in an international negotiation simulation with students from the National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University (“NYCU”). Divided into two teams, NCCU students and NYCU students will represent different companies. Together, you will explore the potential of partnering to utilize Changesium, a new element that promises to revolutionize semiconductor chips' speed. The collaboration could take various forms such as a joint venture, licensing agreement, or long-term supply contract. Throughout the course, you will engage in both written communications and live negotiations, allowing you to gain practical experience in the negotiation process.
The primary objective of this course is to provide you with practical negotiation skills directly applicable to the business world. This will require time outside of class to strategize with your team, prepare for discussions based on email exchanges, and get ready for negotiation sessions. In-class discussions will cover negotiation strategies, progress updates, and examine legal, business, and policy considerations that influence negotiations. By participating in this simulation, you will gain valuable insights into the complexities of cross-business negotiations and enhance your practical negotiation skills in a global context.
(Note: The same course will be instructed in 2024 Fall by Prof. Mark Shope and Michael at NYCU School of Law. Most of the ideas and content of the syllabus are contributed by Mark.)
