BUAD 598 - Social Entrepreneurship

6

This course examines the consulting process specifically in the context of the developing world and prepares students for a role in international development working with entrepreneurs and non-governmental organizations (NGOs). The fieldwork course follows the process of a typical consulting engagement in identifying key project requirements, feasibility and design alternatives allowing students to develop a better understanding of the context of consulting within the domain of social entrepreneurship while creating innovating and sustainable responses to critical social needs. This immersion course will take place in Latin America and provide a deeper understanding of the cultural, political, and business environment in one or more countries through various excursions allowing students to gain a unique perspective on how locals live and work.
