Graduate Certificate in Management (ON HOLD)


Program is on hold and is not currently accepting applications.

Plan Description


The Graduate Certificate in Management (GCM) will be comprised of graduate classes currently offered through the MBA curriculum. The Graduate Certificate is designed for those students wishing to gain knowledge or update their knowledge in the specific area of Management. The Graduate Certificate is not a degree program and completion of this program indicates an expertise in a narrower specialty, not general expertise in all areas of business. Moreover, while a concentration in New Venture Management exists in the MBA, a concentration in General Management does not.
