The Wagner School offers a number of joint undergraduate minors with several undergraduate schools at NYU. Each of these minors is comprised of several courses from Wagner in addition to several courses from the other school.
Non-profits and government harnessing market forces to enhance their public work. Start-up firms centering their mission around social goals. Micro-finance banks earning substantial profits while enabling thousands to work their way out of poverty. 'Intrepreneurs' changing established corporate practices from the inside, for socially-beneficial ends. These and a host of other aspects of the emerging field of social entrepreneurship are explored in detail in this Stern School-Wagner School minor.
