It is applicable where skills in change management, leadership, and group dynamics are demanded for professional effectiveness. The core classes develop an essential managerial knowledge base; students then customize the balance of the coursework with either electives from one focused concentration or a more generalized program of study, selecting electives from any of the three concentrations. The capstone course, built upon two required research courses, results in the research, writing, and presentation of an applied research project. The MS in Leadership and Management (MSLM) program is a networked and mutually supportive community of learners.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The foundation course (<span class=\"sc_courseinline\"><span class=\"code_bubble\" data-code-bubble=\"MGMT 500\">MGMT\u00a0500<\/span> Management:  Theory and Practice<\/span>) provides prerequisite knowledge and tools needed for those with insufficient background.
