GEOL 1332 - MANAGEMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL AND NONPROFIT ORGANIZATIONS

Minimum Credits: 3
Maximum Credits: 3
Enthusiasm goes a long way in the nonprofit environmental world, but volunteers and professionals alike increasingly need more and more skills in order to make a lasting impact. It can be overwhelming even to those who already know what to expect. This course covers the "inner workings" of environmental organizations. We'll go beyond the slogans, junk mail, and big events to study what's behind the nonprofit world, what it takes to succeed, and why advocacy is so important... and so difficult! Speakers from the environmental community will share their experiences and perspectives each week, and a wide range of readings and assignments are designed to have students take a deep look and to experience some of this world, too.
