You can expect changes in your approach and in the outcomes you achieve.

Increase management and leadership skills. You become primed for expanded supervisory responsibility and possible commensurate pay increases.

Stronger self-awareness, which leads to a realistic appraisal of your knowledge, skills, and abilities. You will be able to assess which jobs or promotions to pursue. You may also realize you are qualified for positions you once thought impossible.

Increased exposure to new ideas and methods. You become aware of new concepts and the knowledge that supports them, such as ways to lead and facilitate change.

Expand networking. You will acquire access to information about new and unforeseen career opportunities as you share your goals and abilities with your peers in the program and in the work place.

Making a difference. With the support of professors and cohort colleagues, you will conduct a master's project about something important to you. For projects, our students have started not-for-profit organizations, launched businesses, and implemented programs to address problems or opportunities in their workplaces.
