Duke Course: Theology in Business (ECON 290 / MMS 290)

This course serves two fundamental purposes: (1) to explore how businesses make money and how shifts in the environment change opportunities to do so and (2) to connect effective responses to those changes with fundamental principles in Christian theology. To accomplish these objectives, students will be asked to consider the present-day challenges confronting twelve firms spanning a range of industries. Firms will be drawn from around the world to highlight critical issues in global management.
