Sustainability and Corporate Social Responsibility

Catalog description

This course combines two increasingly important streams of management responsibilities: sustainability and social responsibility. It requires students to examine the challenges of implementing sustainability in a variety of contexts from the perspectives of climate change, energy use, natural resource use, and ecosystems/land use, as well as introduces them to the concepts of corporate social responsibility, which expands corporate focus from serving stockholders to considering the impact of the firm’s activities on diverse stakeholders.
