Master of Science

Management both influences and explores business relationships, and it’s those same relationships that influence whether or not we succeed in many of our professional endeavors. Our program provides students with the skill sets required for not only managing and identifying data, but also to accurately and promptly evaluate it while incorporating aspects of management accounting, controlling, and internal reporting. This, in turn, will allow them to make the right business decisions at the right time.
