Curriculum
The MSOD curriculum focuses on the use-of-self in leading organizational and personal change. Our particular focus stresses the impact of executive coaching on change management. The MSOD Curriculum was designed by faculty with strong academic and business experience, specifically in the areas of management consulting, organizational change, and executive coaching. In addition to an emphasis on the behavioral sciences, our curriculum stresses communication and writing skills, international and cultural awareness, and a comprehensive managerial perspective. Course instruction is presented through various methods including lecture, group projects, and applied OD and consulting experiences with local business and not-for-profit organizations.
Class size typically ranges from 18 to 25 students per class. Classes are highly interactive with appropriate combinations of presentations, discussions, case studies, and group/individual projects. Prospective students are encouraged to experience this environment first-hand by visiting a class. For more information about visiting a class, please contact our Admissions Office.
