Our Work
Business is essential to building a better world, and Business+Impact is helping mobilize the business community as a leader in this work. Business+Impact creates, organizes, and publicizes efforts that highlight and guide business as a force for the greater good.
We amplify impact across Ross and UM and we bring together stakeholders across sectors to put impactful research into practice and uplift the role of business in society.
Impactful Work We're Doing
Detroit Engagement
U-M’s engagement with Detroit has extended over two centuries, and the Michigan Ross commitment to Detroit has continued for over 30 years, a mission that inextricably links the campus with this city of makers.
Impact Internships
Every summer, over 30 students from Ross and the Ford School of Public Policy along with undergraduate business minors deliver impact at organizations locally and around the globe. These roles may be in the public or nonprofit sectors or at social ventures.
Social Innovation Series
Business+Impact hosts and sponsors innovative workshops and events at the Ross School of Business. Top impact leaders, scholars, and students work to advance innovative practical solutions to society’s toughest challenges.
