The intent of the Master of Science Degree in Management and Leadership is to provide
graduate level instruction, which will enhance the management, leadership and decision-making
abilities of the program's graduates, and prepare them for the dynamic, technology-driven
work force they will encounter in both private industry and the public sector.
The Master of Science Degree in Management and Leadership offers graduate level instruction
based in theory while providing opportunities to apply competencies to practical settings.
This program will enhance the management skills and decision-making abilities of the
participants in the program at a cost commensurate with graduate level public education,
and significantly lower on a cost-per-credit basis than private graduate level education.

in the constantly changing business environment that surrounds today's private marketplace
and public sector.
