Today's student is very aware of social issues on both a local and global level: trafficking, poverty, HIV/AIDS, malaria to name a few. Christian students in particular have a greater awareness that their responsibility includes care for the marginalized. Trinity Graduate School is on the forefront of equipping students to address such needs by developing programs that empower students to tackle issues with a biblical worldview.
The new emphasis at TGS focuses specifically on social entrepreneur ventures that create opportunities for solutions to some of these local and global social concerns. A social entrepreneur addresses issues by catalyzing enterprises that create sustainable change for improvement of the social conditions and quality of life of people. The social entrepreneurship emphasis equips students with the skill set to launch ventures that address these concerns.
