Management (MSM)
What You’ll Learn
The MSM is a rigorous full-time program, located on our iconic campus. You’ll join a collaborative cohort of individuals representing a diverse set of undergraduate universities and majors.
Go from Learner to Leader in 11 months
First, build a basis of business knowledge with courses in the principles of management, statistics and accounting in the summer. Then, move through courses in transformational leadership, strategic communications, and micro-economic analysis in the fall. Your year ends with a spring term that covers strategic decision-making, international management and corporate finance.
Transformational Leadership Portfolio
This distinctive course is about self-reflective learning and encouraging students to take stock of themselves, their values, and their leadership. Once the self-assessment is complete, students produce a digital portfolio that tells their story – something employers view as a true differentiator in the marketplace.
Real-World Application
At Mendoza, your business education is enriched through the essential element of experiential learning. During Grow Irish Week you will have the invaluable opportunity to witness the tangible impact of business decisions by engaging in consulting projects with various organizations, immersing yourself in the real-world context.
