MAJORS, MINORS, MASTERS & CURRICULUM FOR SOCIAL INNOVATION

Ashoka U Exchange 2012

PREVIEW - There is a growing trend of course sequences for social entrepreneurship. As field evolves, we need more robust and comprehensive frameworks. Join us to get a deep dive into how Tulane and NYU launched their Minor and Major in Social Entrepreneurship and learn about new Masters programs at the Tata Institute in India and at the University of Waterloo in Canada. These programs skillfully integrate a new thinking on social change, including complexity, resilience, design thinking, and scaling ideas and initiatives. Walk away with lessons learned about the content these educators have developed and how they overcame the institutional challenges they encountered during the process.
