Here\u2019s the core idea:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why?<\/strong>\u00a0Despite today\u2019s extraordinary challenges, we have good roadmaps towards a prosperous future on a healthy planet. To get there we need, above all, new approaches to finance, moving trillions of dollars from destructive channels to profitable and regenerative solutions, soon. The Bard MBA in Sustainability\u2019s ImpactLab will help change finance for good.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How?<\/strong>\u00a0Across the country and the world, students are eager to learn emerging tools that are already effectively moving dollars into productive solutions. Yet today, only a handful of courses are being taught on finance for impact each year. By creating a global learning community of faculty and students focused on the practice of impact finance, ImpactLab will spark hundreds of new courses and course modules, engage tens of thousands of students, and change the practice of finance from the bottom up.<br \/>\nAs a first step, the MBA will be offering a new course called \u201cImpactLab\u201d next semester. Building on\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/mx.technolutions.net\/mpss\/c\/CAE\/jM0HAA\/t.2cs\/fXw4Fe-YTSCfYab6TI_EAw\/h5\/VfxMW-2B-2FdirC-2FkRNzL77cHACqy1Xe5ziVnKtV0Auxnck0mAe0hnhK3CsI6FJabU0E\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">NYCLab<\/a>, ImpactLab will be an experientially-based course in finance for sustainability. Students will now be able to pursue a concentration in Impact Finance as part of their MBA by combining our year-long introductory sequence, the nine-credit capstone, and the new ImpactLab course. The \u201clab\u201d portion of the course this spring will involve the design of student-managed fund, to be incorporated into the course in subsequent iterations.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Expanding the Curriculum: Sustainable Business in a Developing Country Context<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>In addition to the ImpactLab class, the Bard MBA is pleased to announce the addition of a\u00a0<strong>second new elective<\/strong>. Second- and third-year students will now be able to enroll in \u201c<strong>Business and Sustainable Development<\/strong>.\u201d The students will join our first-year Environmental Policy students in\u00a0<strong>Oaxaca, Mexico<\/strong>\u00a0for a ten-day immersion in policy formation and sustainable business opportunities in a developing country context.<\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3><strong>Businesses Stepping Up in the Age of Trump<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>This fall,\u00a0<strong>Hunter Lovins launched \u201cBusiness Stepping Up,\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0a monthly series in which she interviews MBA professors about the role of business in the Trump era.
