Master of Social Entrepreneurship.
Description:
Social entrepreneurs are often from the corporate sector or people who are business entrepreneurs passionate about social issues.
They think about ways to combine resources in innovative ways to address social, political, or environmental concerns as any profitmaking enterprise does. The most important difference between a traditional business and a social enterprise is that profit is not the main motive. The enterprise must be sustainable and not incur losses, but the overall driving force is about maximizing social impact. Program offered in London and San Francisco.
Social entrepreneurs tackle major social issues, from increasing the availability of quality education for low-income students to fighting poverty in developing countries. Social entrepreneurship takes place in both non-profit and for-profit organizations, and successful social entrepreneurs must build relationships with corporations, charities, and governments alike. Social entrepreneurs must be knowledgeable about contemporary global issues, solution-oriented, and adept at mobilizing human, financial, and political resources to support their project.
Hult’s pioneering Master of Social Entrepreneurship (MSE) gives you the skills necessary to engage in successful issue advocacy, problem solving innovation, and project development. Graduates will be empowered to act as effective leaders of change, either via new ventures of their own or through existing for-profit, non-profit, or government institutions. The program emphasizes building core business skills optimized for sociopolitical contexts.
The capstone of Hult’s Master programs, the Action Project, calls upon students to put knowledge and skills to the test as they become consultants for actual organizations working on real-world challenges. Social entrepreneurship is about “thinking” and “doing,” and the Hult program is unique in placing you in a position to do both, not just in the classroom but in front of a real client.
Hult is at the forefront of social entrepreneurship among the world’s leading business schools. As a Clinton Global Initiative member, Hult is committed to tackling the world’s toughest social challenges through crowdsourcing innovative ideas and solutions from the world’s best and brightest business school students.
