There are a variety of reasons to take this course:
1) ESRM 320 has no prerequisites and was designed specifically for non-business majors.
2) For students interested in earning a minor, after autumn ESRM 320 you have the option of taking the winter quarter companion course (ESRM 321 Finance and Accounting from a Sustainability Perspective) which fulfills nearly half of the requirements for an environmental science minor in the School of Environmental and Forest Sciences.
3) ESRM 320 provides an opportunity to look at how companies affect the natural environment and corporate social responsibility.
I’m happy to answer any questions that you have via the email below!
