Business meets humanities: a liberal arts curriculum [our proposed planning grant seeks to bring humanistic analysis to business education by laying an intellectual foundation and to plan a coherent curricular structure that will support the development of new courses, and the revision of existing courses. Our goal is to tie these courses together under a curricular structure that allows all our students, including those who are pursuing a degree in business, to benefit from the humanistic (e.g. historical, philosophical, ethical) insights that connect to current models of economic practices. Similarly, we want all of our students, including those who are pursuing a degree in the humanities, to benefit from a firm understanding of business practice and economic decision-making so they are equipped to address the interlocking political, economic, and environmental crises of our times.]
