Section Title:
Social Entre & Social Change
Section Info:
This course meets with SOCW 321 A. This course provides students an opportunity to design and launch a product, service, or program intended to provide social value to communities. It considers social entrepreneurship and innovation as a broad approach to addressing social problems. In doing so, it incorporates techniques and strategies from all three sectors of economic and social life: government, private enterprise, and nonprofit action. The initial part of the class will emphasize concepts and principles related to socially-motivated entrepreneurship. Students explore their own goals, values, and strengths as they build a skillset to understand social problems and evaluate business and program plans to address those problems. The latter portion of the course features students working in teams to design (and potentially implement) innovative social-purpose projects with support from community leaders. Students have won university-wide and national recognition for their work in this course. High-potential student ventures can enroll in the second-stage course, SOCW380, which focuses on incorporation and organizational growth.

Negotiations
Section Info:
This course teaches a broadly effective framework for negotiating and resolving conflicts. Because business leaders need to work with others to accomplish goals, they need to be skilled negotiators. This course is linked to an international trip (applications for the trip are available through the international programs office). We will meet the second half of the semester to learn negotiation fundamentals. Many of us will then travel in late May to negotiate and learn in Australia, allowing us to develop our understanding and our skills for international negotiations. You can take this class without going on the trip, and you can go on the trip if you have taken any BADM negotiation class.
