Students will examine the notion of “sustainable business” in this course. Students will learn about different types of ‘green’ and sustainable businesses and evaluate many case studies of businesses that have been successful in improving their environmental and social performance while also remaining profitable. Students will develop their own approaches to evaluating the sustainability of a business while also learning about emerging norms and frameworks. Students will examine sustainability as a concept impacting all aspects of a business, from operations and product design to finance, marketing, and human resources management. Students will continue to develop entrepreneurial skillsets and mindsets as they approach solutions to sustainability challenges. The impacts of “green” industries, products, and business practices are also examined. This course may be offered online.
