This program can be completed online, on-campus, or a combination of the two.
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.
Students in this program may apply any successfully completed College of Professional Studies graduate certificate to the overall program requirements and focus their studies on one of more than twenty areas of specialization.
| In September of 2009, the Master of Science in Leadership with a Specialization in Project Management received accreditation by the Project Management Institute's Global Accreditation Center (GAC), the world's leading association for project management professionals. Accreditation is achieved by meeting the GAC’s rigorous standards, which include an assessment of program objectives and outcomes, a review of onsite and online resources, evaluations of faculty and students, and proof of continuous improvements in the area of project management. |
