MBA Program with a Concentration in Socially Responsible Business
A brief description of the graduate minor, concentration or certificate (1st program):
The Master in Business Administration program at the Lorry I. Lokey Graduate School of Business and Public Policy educates ethical and socially responsible organizational leaders who have the strategic perspective, analytic abilities, business knowledge, and leadership and management skills to deliver strong financial performance while mindfully making a positive impact on society and the environment.
Our program emphasizes the four pillars of socially responsibility and shared value: ethical decision-making and governance, social and community accountability, diversity and inclusion, and environmental sustainability. These values are integrated throughout our curriculum, our co-curricular activities and our partnerships with organizations that share similar values. Across the curriculum, the faculty emphasizes real-world applications and learning from both theory and practice.
Recognizing Mills' long-standing commitment to women's education and diversity, our program is distinguished among business schools by the rich diversity of identities, experiences, and perspectives that our students bring to enhance our programs and classroom experience. It also positions the Lokey Graduate School of Business as an important source of talent for employers seeking to strengthen diversity within their managerial and leadership levels.
The curriculum is designed to ensure that our graduates have the analytic and quantitative skills they need to advance to senior management levels. Students develop a strong foundation for effective problem-framing, problem-solving, and decision-making through rigorous course work in economics, accounting, quantitative methods, and finance.
Building on this foundation, our students learn how to deliver enterprise-wide value through our required core courses in marketing, operations, human resources management, and management information systems. These courses in the functional areas of management are supplemented by two additional core courses designed to hone students’ leadership skills and perspectives—leadership and ethics, and our capstone integrative course in strategic management.
Students supplement the foundation and core curriculum through electives, which allow them to either broaden their knowledge and skills in management or deepen their knowledge and expertise through a concentration in accounting, finance, marketing, nonprofit management, or socially responsible business.
