Abstract

This research is part of a semester-long project from undergraduate students at Molloy College in Rockville Centre, NY. The theme emerges from a pedagogical philosophy that an essential learning outcome of their undergraduate studies is the significant influence that business has upon society while working with a local non-profit. For example, having students enter into the business world where profit is a healthy by-product and is not the sole take-away toward today’s career development is critical in developing tomorrow’s ethical and social leaders. The learning activity leading to the learning outcome is requiring the undergraduate business students to experience this type of real-world project. The students are presented with an opportunity to study pressing issues that are present within their assigned non-profit and they are to collectively make a set of solution-driven recommendations that will ultimately lead to social good.
