The traditional concept that leadership skill resides solely with a small handful of top executives has given way to contemporary collaborative models, where influence and decision-making authority are distributed throughout an organization. Today's workforce continues to diversify, and the tasks to be accomplished have become more complex. Northeastern's Master of Science in Leadership is designed to assist today's leaders and prepare emerging leaders in meeting these challenges. This program incorporates an action-learning approach that is intended to leverage the interdisciplinary backgrounds of participants to help build leadership competencies.

- Financial Services

*Students may choose to create their own concentration based on any College of Professional Studies graduate certificate or set of courses. |
