    UCLA Community Engagement and Social Change Minor Capstone Papers Title Social Impact Through Business: A Comparative Analysis of Undergraduate Course Offerings and Perceptions of University Support Permalink https://escholarship.org/uc/item/4g7574m3 Author Nordstrom, Anna Publication Date 2019-08-09 eScholarship.org Powered by the California Digital Library University of California Nordstrom 1 Social Impact Through Business: A Comparative Analysis of Undergraduate Course Offerings and Perceptions of University Support By: Anna Nordstrom Faculty Advisor: Jennifer Walske Civic Engagement Capstone Project Nordstrom 2 Social Impact Through Business: A Comparative Analysis of Undergraduate Course Offerings and Perceptions of University Support Introduction Social impact education is a new and growing field. From mandatory ethics courses to entire concentrations in social entrepreneurship, the diversity and range of offerings in this field are vast. Based on my research of four university social impact programs at the undergraduate level, within business fields, there are an interesting smorgasburg of course offerings. However, as this paper suggests, learning more about the implications and current offerings of social impact programs can help universities understand the needs of undergraduate students, to better serve this population of students. It can also further progressive social movements through students that choose to pursue social impact after graduation. Positionality This topic is interesting to me because I am currently teaching a course in social impact through business at the undergraduate level. I have found that there are not many courses on this topic at UCLA. This lack of offerings motivated my research to further understand how other universities approach this educational area and work with their students to further their learning.
