DescriptionOverview. The Advanced Guide to Mergers & Acquisitions is a course in the business and legal aspects of M& activity. We will be covering all of the important aspects of M&A transactions, using real-world business examples and case studies wherever possible to make the connection between learning and application. And we’ll have a lot of fun doing it! I have been fortunate in my career to have worked on many “headline deals†that involved some big personalities (and egos). They make for great case studies to review during class, but make for even better behind-the-scenes stories. In addition, we’ll cover some areas that aren’t addressed in most M&A courses, but that I think you’ll find both fascinating and entertaining. For example, “Hostile Takeovers†and “Poison Pills†have been in the news for much 2022 and 2023, but what exactly are they? We’ll talk about those, and many other current trends in the M&A market.
Who is this Course For? The Advanced Guide to Mergers & Acquisitions is intended for those who have some background in accounting and corporate finance. However, for those with no business background and anyone who could benefit from a review, I have included a "Crash Course" (see below) that covers many concepts related to M&A.
Crash Course. M&A is a subject that brings together multiple disciplines, including accounting, finance, and corporate law. For anyone with no background in these topics or who would benefit from a review, the course includes a comprehensive "Crash Course" that covers concepts that are applicable to this course.
Downloadable Materials. The course includes a significant amount of content that you are free to download and keep, including recorded lectures, a PowerPoint Slide Deck for every lecture, Case Studies, and Study Aids.
Who this course is for:
- Someone with an intermediate/advanced level of business knowledge who is interested in learning more about M&A transactions through a thorough introduction to the subject.
- Current business and law students who are taking/planning to take an M&A course.
- Those currently working in a business or legal position who want to accelerate their career and/or expand their base of knowledge.
- Those with an advanced level of business knowledge who want to focus on M&A.

Jerome ("J") Egan
Instructor's CoursesMy name is Jerome Egan (I go by "J"). I grew up outside of Philadelphia, have lived most of my life in New York and Los Angeles, with stops in Asia and Australia, and have three beautiful daughters.I began my career as a corporate attorney specializing in mergers and acquisitions. In that role, I worked on over $60 billion of M&A transactions, including the following:- MCI | WorldCom: Largest corporate acquisition at that point in U.S. history ($37B).- AHP | American Cyanamid: Largest cash hostile takeover at that point in U.S. history ($9.7B).- Universal Studios: Acquisition of PolyGram NV ($10.4B); sale of TV operations to Home Shopping Network ($4.1B).I later entered the private equity industry, where I led nearly $2 billion of acquisitions across North America, Europe, and Australia.I hold a B.S. in Business Administration and a B.A. in Psychology from Penn State University, where I graduated third in my class from the College of Business with Highest Distinction. I later received my J.D. from the New York University School of Law and my M.B.A. from the Wharton School of Business.My number one goal in teaching is to make the complex simple. I have found that 99% of the business concepts I once thought I'd never understand were actually fairly easy once I began working and needed to learn and apply them. I want to do the same with this course - to demystify many of these topics and, in the process, pass along some of my enthusiasm and love for the subject because M&A is an exciting and fun topic!
