The Master of Science in Management online program is an interdisciplinary degree of 36 credit hours. The faith-basd program is designed to combine a Christian perspective with conventional academic instruction and experiential input from experts and students. It is formatted for classes to meet one night a week, four hours a night.
The curriculum covers such topics as organizational theory, marketing, economics, and legal and ethical issues. Negotiation, finance and communication are also studied. The entire curriculum is focused on preparing excellent leaders in organizations and businesses with an honest commitment to ethical practices and personal leadership and self-analysis.
The curriculum is organized to encourage entering groups of students to remain together throughout the program, creating a cohesive learning and supportive community.
The Master of Science in Management degree is also available online. Online courses use the same textbooks and require the same number of weeks as face-to-face courses in the cohort groups but also take advantage of web resources. Online courses use electronic threaded discussions to replace classroom dialogues and web links to augment readings and discussions. Admissions requirements are the same for online and face-to-face students. Students may view system requirements, course offerings, complete an application, order books and pay tuition online through the MySAU portal.
