The Masters of
Science degree in Organizational Management (MSOM) is a degree for supervisors
and mid-level managers. Professional work experience is a pre-/co requisite
for the program. Sharing and reflecting on that work experience with
classmates is integral to the educational experience. Therefore, the program
is designed for working adults, offering classes mainly in the evenings and
sequenced for the student who takes one or two courses per semester. Click
here for examples of possible
2-, 3, and 4-year programs. The
MSOM program focuses on individual behavior, group dynamics, organizational
processes and structure, and the interactions of all of these within an
organization. Its small-classroom environment develops the student’s capacity
for transformative leadership. Students acquire leadership and partnership
skills through the program’s reflective practice that places them outside
their “comfort zone.” The MSOM program is designed especially for those in
supervisory and management positions, enabling them to deal better with the
dynamics of complex organizations. Click here for more information on competencies
developed in the program. |

Classes Classes in the MSOM program are small and interactive.
Many involve group projects; all assume regular attendance and participation.
While there are no online courses in the program, faculty take full advantage
of Blackboard (http://its.easternct.edu/webct/),
Eastern’s online course delivery interface, to provide assignments,
discussion boards, links to resources, and other course materials. In
general classes are offered once a week on weeknights to allow for in-depth
class discussion, to accommodate working adults’ work schedules, and to
minimize commuting time for students. Most classes are offered on our
Willimantic campus, but when demand dictates, we offer classes at other
locations. Click here for catalog descriptions of our courses. |
