BC 601 - Immersion 1

Credits: 2
The first Immersion provides an intensive, cross-disciplinary introduction to the graduate program. Lead instructors guide the cohort on a tour of themes, lessons, and takeaways from each course in the program. The Immersion lays out the framework of the degree. That is, to examine the ethical and cultural framework of transformative business models, as well as leadership and operational practices that focus on empathy, equity; accessibility; and comprehensive sustainability, financial and fundamental legal literacy. The Immersion is a three-day intensive thread of workshops, discussions, lectures and activities organized via interactive modules. The course is designed to give each student a comprehensive overview of the program and a preview of their individual journey. As the program is online and primarily asynchronous, the Immersion also strives to build community and form bonds between students, faculty and staff.
