Master of Science in Organizational Leadership
The Master of Science Degree in Organizational Leadership is a 30-credit program designed to provide a theoretical and practical framework for professionals who currently hold leadership positions or are aspiring to leadership roles in organizations. The program is integrated by five themes or threads that are woven throughout all courses. These threads are the Mercyhurst mission (service, whole-person development), organizational leadership, written and oral communication, technology and ethics for leaders. The program is designed to meet the needs and schedules of working students. Classes, which meet once a week during the evening or weekend, are taught using a variety of instructional modes.
