Student Opportunities
Discover information about core and elective courses for our sustainability-themed MBA concentration.
Sustainability concerns and opportunities touch almost every aspect of business and, therefore, MBA careers. Your ability to identify trends, reduce risks, and seize opportunities for business value will open up career opportunities and make you a better candidate and leader, whether you are seeking a role focused on a sustainability topic or pursuing a more traditional career track.
To help MBA students best manage these opportunities, we offer workshops, panel discussions, advising, and mentoring. The Center also maintains a close relationship with the Jones MBA Career Center to coordinate sustainability-focused career events as well as to inform career advisors about corporate sustainability trends and opportunities.
Scheller College Graduate Sustainability Fellows
Fellows deepen their engagement in sustainability by working on year-long projects.
Net Impact - MBA Chapter
The Net Impact club supports the development of future business leaders by elevating awareness of sustainability and equipping students with skills to address environmental and social impact issues as they progress in their careers. The MBA Chapter holds a National Gold Status Chapter designation.
