BCOR 2040 - Value, Impact, Business and Entreprenuership (VIBE)

This course focuses on how individuals innovate to create and capture value, with a focus on the power of individuals to pursue new ideas through forming and joining profit seeking and/or mission driven organizations. In particular, we will study how individuals decide to carry out specific work within organizations and/or decide to start up new organizations to create value. Economics, strategy, entrepreneurship, psychology, sociology and other social and behavioral sciences help us understand how and why some value creation efforts succeed and others fail. This course focuses not only on abstract concepts, but on your own unique ability to create value through the academic and experiential path you choose. You will determine an area of interest (domain) and apply the course concepts each week as you explore potentially high-value ways to integrate your studies, your work, and your passions.
