Dominican University of California Takes Green MBA Mainstream
Dominican University of California has acquired the Green MBA program and trademark currently offered at New College of California. The Green MBA was the regions first graduate business program focused on corporate social responsibility, environmental sustainability, and social justice within the business context. The move to Dominican allows the MBA program to grow and reach a more mainstream student body.
The Green MBA co-founder and Executive Director John Stayton will move with the program to Dominican. The move is a homecoming of sorts for Stayton, who earned an MBA in International Business from Dominican in 1995. Stayton will retain his title as Green MBA program director. Stayton launched the program at New College as an MA program in 2000 and as an MBA in 2002.
The Green MBA provides a cohesive third offering to Dominicans existing graduate business programs at a time when demand is growing for a workforce with an expertise in sustainability, said Dr. Christopher Leeds, Director of Dominicans Graduate Business Programs. Dominican also offers an MBA in Strategic Leadership and an MBA in Global Strategic Management in its School of Business and Leadership.
