M.B.A from UMass Boston

Environmental Management Specialization (Complete Three Courses):

• Introduction to Environmental Management (MBAMGT 671) (on campus)
  Gain an understanding of current environmental issues as they relate to managerial decision-making. Examine issues from the worldwide perspectives of business and society with a focus on the issues of waste and recycling, air quality (including ozone depletion, global warming, and acid rain), water quality, resource management, biodiversity, and sustainable economic growth.
• Global Warming and International Business Management (MBAMGT 688L) (on campus)
  Global warming may be the most important challenge that the human race has faced to date. We’re coming to grips with the ramifications of the potentially disastrous changes wrought by such contributing factors as fossil fuel consumption, deforestation, rapid population growth, and pollution. The economic consequences of these changes, however, have not been well explored. As a business leader and manager in the 21st century, you’ll need to develop a profound understanding of the results of environmental policies, energy use, and lifestyle choices on global warming.
• Environmental Accounting and Finance (MBA AF 631) (on campus)
  Explore corporate environmental disclosure and reporting, environmental management accounting, carbon markets, green project analysis, corporate environmental risk assessment and valuation, socially responsible investing, and green banking. Environmental concerns and climate change are emerging as important business drivers and gaining the attention of accountants, financial managers, and investors. As investors and society require companies to become more socially and environmentally sustainable, the measurement, management, and external reporting of information about environmental risks and performance is of growing importance.
