Advance Your Career with an MSA from Central Michigan University

You’re ready for a promotion. You’re motivated to continue your education. You’re prepared to make a change.

It’s time to earn your master’s degree.

Competition for jobs has increased exponentially in the last decade. As a result, the number of master’s degrees earned increased by 31% from 2004 to 2015, according to the National Center for Education Statistics.

A traditional business degree focuses on accounting, finance and has an emphasis on the bottom line. For those interested in a broader view encompassing the culture of an organization and how to motivate teams and influence decision-making, the Master of Science in Administration from Central Michigan University is a different type of master’s degree.

CMU’s MSA blends a strong base in administration with the leadership and people skills needed for success in any organization. Not only will you master business skills and best practices, you’ll understand how psychology and sociology play a key role in being a successful leader. With classes like Managing Change with Emotional Intelligence; Succession Planning; Disruption, Innovation, Transformation and Change; and Intercultural Communication and Global Leadership Perspectives, your education will be anything but ordinary.

There are 15 concentrations available, allowing you to tailor your program to your career goals. You can choose to focus on human resources, project management or public administration or take a broader approach with general administration or leadership.
