New program introduces innovations in professional education aimed at creating framework for strategic decisions. Worldview Stanford is an innovative Stanford University initiative that creates learning experiences for professionals to help them get smarter about the issues and dynamics shaping the future. Worldview Stanford builds on the university's leadership in interdisciplinary inquiry and online learning to tackle complex topics - from China and climate change to global demography and brain science breakthroughs. By combining flexible, online content with an immersive, Stanford-based experience, decision makers get the frameworks, content, commentary and updates they need to inform their strategic decisions. Worldview Stanford's inaugural offering, The Science of Decision Making, examines how the latest research in neuroscience, psychology, behavioral economics, business, engineering and other fields enhances our understanding of human decision making. "At Stanford, we are passionate about the value of interdisciplinary research," said Stanford Dean of Research Ann Arvin. "We believe it helps us see real world problems - and solutions - from new angles, by making connections we could never make within our own disciplines.
