Social Entrepreneurship: The Business of Development is a 4-credit course offered jointly by the JHU Carey Business School and JHU/SAIS. The course is capped at 15 Carey Business School students and 15 SAIS students for a total of no more than 30 students. The course is focused on understanding social entrepreneurship and the challenges of building sustainable, impactful businesses that address critical underserved needs in emerging global marketplaces. The course aims to create in each student an appreciation of the qualities, values and skills of social entrepreneurs and also entrepreneurial opportunities in critical sectors of human need in complex, resource-constrained markets that are plagued by fragmented infrastructure, inadequate institutions and other governance challenges. Students will learn first-hand how businesses serving the needs of the poor contribute to community development and ‘do well by doing good.’
