Impact Lab
Do Real Stuff
The Impact Lab course is a 6-credit experiential learning course that gives students an opportunity to work directly for social ventures under the guidance of a faculty instructor and professional mentors. You will have opportunities to manage teams, solve real-life problems, and gain hands-on business experience.
For exceptionally entrepreneurial and independent students, separate projects dealing with brand new social enterprise ideas MAY BE possible.
