A brief description of the graduate degree program (2nd program):
In today’s world, understanding how to balance natural, social, and financial systems has become increasingly important for helping you reach your career goals and become an effective leader in business, industry, and nonprofit organizations. Students who graduate with a Master of Science in Sustainable Management can expect to have a strong foundation for leading change in their current organizations or building new careers that require systems-thinking skills. The 14-course online Sustainable Management master’s program is a collaborative effort of five University of Wisconsin System campuses: UW-Green Bay, UW-Oshkosh, UW-Parkside, UW-Stout, and UW-Superior. Current, cutting-edge curriculum has been developed by faculty from each of these five campuses with input from within the industry to make sure our learning objectives are current and valuable to future employers. Designed for working adults with real-world experience, this online master’s degree program offers flexibility to help students balance family, job, and other commitments. If you have a bachelor’s degree from a regionally or nationally accredited university and a cumulative grade point average (GPA) of 3.0, you may apply directly to the program. Students with a GPA of less than 3.0 may be considered for provisional admission but should speak with an adviser.
