Online Education Programs - Getting A Green MBA Is Good For You And The Planet!
A new word is slowly permeating its way through the English language, “Sustainability.” It is defined as a “method of harvesting or using a resource so that the resource is not depleted or permanently lost.” Probably the most interesting thing is it’s entering the jargon of the businessman. Why there is even an MBA program for it.
In many ways, it makes sense. Since President Obama made a commitment towards a green economy as part of his election, one should expect actual economists would want to study it. As such, an MBA in Sustainability the positives and negatives of transitioning our current economy out of non-replenishable resources, cleaning up the planet and tackling such issues as overpopulation.
This almost philosophical form of economics believes in three principles bandied about as “the Triple Bottom Line.” The three programs are generally defined to include economic, environmental, and social sustainability. For example, the current oil crisis would be considered an economic issue. Global warming would fall under environmental, while overpopulation would be considered a sustainability matter.
Like any new philosophical approach, there are those who disparage Sustainability. The program has been nicknamed the “Green MBA,” and how the color is treated is similar to how one feels about environmental matters. At the same time, if one wants to pursue this field, you’ll still have to have a Bachelor’s in something like Accounting or Economics, then pass one’s GMAT just like any other MBA candidate.
Therefore, one should do their own share of research before enrolling in a school offering the program. Not only should they drill career counselors about the program, but do actual research on the school and check for referrals, too. No doubt there are legitimate programs out there but, as with any new program, the buyer should be wary.
One thing one will do if taking the course is expect a number of post-grad courses in such standard classes as accounting, auditing, marketing and traditional business curricula. They should also be ready to take courses in the environmental sciences and their economic implications. One should also be aware that on the technical side there is a degree called Environmental Economics, but this is a STEM-related course load, not business.
It should be noted that Green MBAs are also not approved by everyone in the business community. More traditional MBA schools feel that a true businessman is only concerned with the business of business, not in saving the world. Of course, this argument that if the planet’s ecology isn’t addressed soon, there isn’t going to be much of a world left to do business in.
As it stands, it should be remembered that this is a very new area for those who once considered themselves the masters of the universe. They realize the economic costs of a global ecologic disaster would make something like the BP Oil spill in the Gulf Coast look picayune in comparison. Those who are entering this field are often using online school programs to do so, along with their peers who are working toward everything from science to online master degree in English options.
