MSc Impact-Focused Business and Investing

More than any other time in recent history, businesses are being seen as both part of the problem and part of the solution to global social, environmental and economic problems, and they face growing scrutiny from both shareholders and consumers. Today’s business leaders have to thread the needle between delivering strong financial performance while not pillaging and plundering the environment and communities in order to do so.

Future leaders of these businesses are going to need new mental models, tools and frameworks if they are going to successfully navigate these complex conditions to deliver both profitability and positive social impact.

The M.S. in Impact-Focused Business and Investing is designed to provide a solid foundation in business fundamentals from the corporate, entrepreneurial, non-profit and public sector perspectives. Changemakers — entrepreneurs and intrapreneurs alike — have always been attracted to opportunities that, to other people, might look like problems.

Students in this program will learn how to design and develop solutions to these problems regardless of whether they are starting their own venture or working in a corporation, social enterprise, or non-profit organization.
