General information
Are you determined and passionate about creating robust sustainability
solutions to the world’s toughest problems? In this master, you’ll learn how to
embed sustainability into the core of business’ (international) operations, how
new social enterprises are changing the face of industries, and how companies
and NGOs can collaborate and partner to tackle societal grand challenges.
The curriculum focuses on how organisations can tackle grand societal
challenges through high-learning engagement, for example seminars,
presentations, critical discussions, and guest lectures.
You will:
Understand organisations embedded within sustainable socio-ecological
systems.
Learn tools and frameworks that enable applying knowledge to create
sustainability solutions.
Challenge the current status-quo and critically ask ‘is this the way
things should work?’
Discover how all of this works in practice through our extensive alumni
network of global changemakers including CEOs, governmental politicians,
professors and social entrepreneurs.
Our courses are designed to provide you with knowledge, skills and
attitude for meaningful careers in a new paradigm of business. For example,
the Sustainability Grand Challenges core course sets you the task of
creating new business solutions to tackle a real societal problem, and pitch it
to a multi-stakeholder jury. Our elective portfolio is updated annually to
reflect the fast-changing business sustainability landscape, and is closely
connected with practice.
Highlights
Real
business challenges: engage with organisations striving to develop innovative
strategies and business models that answer our global sustainability
challenges.
Top-notch
research and curriculum: explore the latest theoretical knowledge and ideas of
sustainable business with the latest cutting-edge advancements of practice, and
create your own new solutions. The master is part of a globally leading
department dedicated to researching the ethics, responsibility and
sustainability of organisations nested within society – which is taught directly
in the master.
Core
transferable skills: learn strong analytical and problem-solving skills –
supported by interactive learning such as simulations, live business cases and
role-plays – and develop interpersonal skills such as negotiation, presenting
and working on interdisciplinary projects.
Strong student
and alumni network: immerse yourself in a community of passionate people
seeking impactful careers for positive societal change. Alumni stay closely
connected to the programme and current students through events, guest lectures
and company visits – this is a great way to discover how sustainability in
business really works, and to meet likeminded people who can help you find
projects and maybe even a job!
Is it right for me?
This
programme is designed for ambitious young bachelor graduates who want to help
tackle sustainability challenges facing business and society. Most GBS students
already have a background in business, social or environmental studies, and
want to deepen their knowledge in the field of sustainability and how
organisations – profit and non-profit, in a broad range of sectors – can
transform their current practices to become a positive change for good. You’ll
fit right in if you:
Are
prepared to think critically about sustainability dilemmas.
Are willing
and able to analyse complex ‘wicked problems’.
Desire
systematic knowledge on managing for sustainability.
Want to
learn professional skills to collaboratively create, scale and communicate
sustainability solutions
