Under the leadership of Professor Bjørn N. Jørgensen, the course has received outstanding feedback for its engaging and real-life application-based approach.
Professor Jørgensen, who brings extensive research experience in fundamental analysis, accounting-based valuation, and risk disclosures, has transformed what can often be seen as a dry subject into a dynamic and interactive learning experience. His teaching methods ensure that students not only grasp financial principles but also understand how they drive real-world decision-making.
Student feedback highlights the impact of this approach:
- “Bjørn managed to convey quite a dry and technical topic in a very interactive, real life experience based way, which can be helpful for anyone with non–finance background. All in all, great start of an EMBA!”
- “Essential topic for anyone in business. Liked the choice of case studies and the fact, that they also had the Danish/ European business dimension – not only the US.”
- “The way [the professor] broke down complex concepts, especially around valuation and financial ratios, was brilliant and really helped me connect the dots. He made the subject tha quite daunting much more accessible and engaging.”
- “I've never knew accounting could be so interesting. For every question received he always had a relevant, real-life case to exemplify”
- “I had very limited knowledge on accounting and was afraid that I would be completely lost and maybe even find it boring. But I did not at all. I very much enjoyed the teaching.”
- “Exceptional teacher – never had any better to be honest. Such a knowledge and commitment. Great experience 11/10 for sure!”
Beyond qualitative feedback, the numbers speak for themselves: 100% of students agreed that the course increased their knowledge, and 96.2% of students had an overall positive impression of the course.
Professor Jørgensen himself encapsulates his teaching philosophy:
“Accounting is the language of business, and my goal is to ensure that every EMBA participant - regardless of background - feels confident using financial insights to make strategic decisions. By applying real-world case studies and interactive learning methods, we make accounting not just understandable, but indispensable.”
