A brief description of the graduate degree program (1st program):
Our Master of Sustainable Business degree is just as revolutionary as the re-envisioned business model we’re showing you how to transform. While other programs try to adjust the existing business structure, at Aquinas we believe the key to sustainable business lies in an entirely new approach - one that is community-focused, and that delivers positive results for individual businesses.
As first in the nation, the 12-course, 2-year program integrates science, commerce and environmental studies to prepare business leaders for the new economy. We’ll outline the problems of business today; discuss the alternative of a durable, nature-based economic model; and highlight the competitive advantages for those businesses and communities that choose to move toward a sustainable model. Graduates will become the new leaders, generating new products, practices and policies that foster a sustainable economy.
Our goal at Aquinas College is to provide graduate students with an education that outlines the current problems of business, uncovers a durable, nature-based economic model that will yield only positive outcomes, and highlights the competitive advantages for businesses and communities that participate in such a sustainable model.
Like all our programs at Aquinas, we deliver graduates who, although familiar with conventional business approaches, have a greater understanding of what is needed to address our deepest environmental, social and business problems. Graduates of the Aquinas MSB will possess the expertise to confidently direct businesses toward a meaningful and profitable transition to sustainable business.
