Cursusbeschrijving

Inhoud

In this minor, you will work as consultants to (Rotterdam and surrounding area based) social entrepreneurs and non-profit organizations. This course is intended to strengthen the skills
and specific knowledge of students and provides a very practical experience. Instead of working with fictitious cases, you will be working with real, existing organizations. This will
allow you to apply the knowledge that you have gained thus far to a real-life situation. In addition, the work you will be doing is intended to benefit both your client organization and the
larger community. Interesting cases are pre-selected by the instructors, but we are open for any suggestions from students.

During this course, you will:

1. become familiar with important issues and theories involving consultancy, social entrepreneurship, and the non-profit sector;

2. develop skills in the application of theoretical concepts to real-life situations;

3. gain experience with actual issues that arise in the course of a consultancy project;
