The Focus Area Future Prosperity and Sustainability explained

What are companies responsible for, which negative externalities are acceptable, and who is paying the price for these consequences? Recently, this discussion has changed and become more intense. The Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations are moving up quickly on the agendas of top managers and policy makers as well. Many companies struggle to redefine themselves, and are looking for ways to contribute.

Completing the Focus Area Future Prosperity and Sustainability gives you specialised knowledge to help you understand these emerging themes and successfully contribute to the strategic developments in this field.

"Being an International Business and Management graduate with the Sustainable Society Focus Area has given me the chance to become an expert in an area where I am strongly passionate about, while it has also given me a better position in the job market and a traineeship as a sustainability consultant."
