Master of Science in Organization Leadership
| RELATED LINKS: |
The Master of Science in Management (MSM) program is now titled Master of Science in Organization Leadership (MS in Organization Leadership). The name change creates a clear identity for the program that supports the Regis mission and helps differentiate it from the MBA degree as well as other graduate management programs, and reflects the current distinction between managers and leaders, which has become a significant part of the academic business lexicon.
The Masters of Science in Organization Leadership (formerly Master of Science in Management) is an accelerated 30 credit-hour program.
Students following the 36 credit-hour program should contact Casey Conway at cconway@regis.edu or 303-964-5466 for information.
This innovative organization leadership degree centers on a dynamic model of leadership and organizational change, which encourages students to synthesize leading-edge concepts and their own practical experience. The main thrust of the MS in Organization Leadership program is on leading people, developing team players and facilitating change in the work environment. Students develop a broad perspective and through enhanced communication skills work toward process improvement. MS in Organization Leadership graduates have the skills to think critically, create vision based on ethical values, discern the future, take risks, become global leaders, and institute change within their organizations.
