Lehrinhalt

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) explores how companies can go beyond profit-making to act responsibly toward society and the environment. In this course, you will learn how businesses address various issues linked to social sustainability, human rights, ethical decision-making, and stakeholder interests. CSR thus gives you the tools to understand how businesses can drive positive change while staying successful. You’ll explore how you, too, can shape a fairer and more sustainable future in whatever career path you choose.

Make sure you read the syllabus (as well as the information in BOKUlearn) which provides detailed information on the three ways you can complete the course. You can download it under 'additional information' ('Zusatzinformationen').
Please note: the classes will be from 13:00 till 15:30 hrs.
