GRN 6210 - Systems Thinking

(4 units)

This course examines systems thinking, which is an approach to problem solving that views “problems” as parts of an overall system, rather than reacting to present outcomes or events and potentially contributing to further development of the undesired issue or problem. This course teaches students how to apply systems thinking to a variety of practical problems, including crisis management. Outcomes include learning how to ask the right questions, how to formulate problems from multiple perspectives, how to anticipate and to analyze stakeholders, how to be aware of and challenge critical assumptions, and how to see problems and key issues systematically.
