Hear what students and faculty have to say about Dominican's Green MBA.

Transform Yourself. Transform Business. Transform The World. 

In the Green MBA, we seek solutions that promote financial viability, ecological sustainability, and social justice. We use a dynamic, project-oriented learning approach to integrate the development of entrepreneurial and intrapreneurial skills with the building of critical thinking and leadership capacities. To encourage this transformation in our students’ capabilities, we have built a close-knit community of teachers and learners woven into a supportive network of business, academic and activist leaders.

Mission

The Green MBA  is an engaging learning community where people with strong environmental and social values develop effective leadership capacities to advance economically successful, ecologically restorative, and socially just initiatives in any type of organization.

Skills/Acumen

We integrate the stewardship of financial, human, and natural capital–beyond the triple bottom line-into a world class MBA curriculum.  Students learn how to:

• Apply practical skills,
• Make better decisions using rigorous critical thinking methods,
• Communicate and lead effectively,
• Collaborate with others in designing and implementing successful initiatives,
• Face challenges inherent in turbulent issues,
• Master methods and tools to analyze systemic factors.

Transformation

In the Green MBA , students are encouraged to explore their beliefs, purpose, passion, and the way they think from the inside out, and then translate this to meaningful and applied opportunities for growth. Small classes, opportunities to share openly, faculty mentors, and collaborative project-oriented learning create a supportive and challenging environment for this transformational process.

Community

We are a collaborative and engaging community for those who believe that responsible enterprises must provide effective solutions to our pressing environmental and social problems. Community events for students, alumni, faculty, and guests promote cross-pollination of ideas and the ability to expand collaborative personal and organizational networks, optimizing success in implementing new initiatives and models for enterprise.

Flexibility

There are three program structures available for the Green MBA  program to meet students’ varying lifestyle needs. All have the same courses and the same number of classroom hours.
