Starting a FREE Course at Harvard University

Why did I want to take a course at Harvard University?

In a pandemic, stuck at home, just graduating with my Bachelor’s Degree and having nothing to do at home after a swamp of 5 online classes I decided to take an online class. Besides reading, blogging, cooking and watching some shows I have nothing else to do. Wait, did I mention cleaning? So, yes I decided to take a class; 24hr in a day and after 5 finished classes I found a lot of time on my schedule. I thought, why not further my education with some free Harvard classes.

What Course Did I Choose?

Entrepreneurship in Emerging Economies.

Course description

This business and management course, taught by Harvard Business School professor Tarun Khanna, takes an interdisciplinary approach to understanding and solving complex social problems. You will learn about prior attempts to address these problems, identify points of opportunity for smart entrepreneurial efforts, and propose and develop your own creative solutions.
The focus of this course is on individual agency—what can you do to address a defined problem? While we will use the lens of health to explore entrepreneurial opportunities, you will learn how both problems and solutions are inevitably of a multi-disciplinary nature, and we will draw on a range of sectors and fields of study.

Tarun Khanna
