Магистр по изучению лидерства

The Master of Arts degree in Leadership Studies (MLS) seeks students with the passion and dedication to join a new generation of leaders who will confront challenges in an increasingly complex and constantly changing world. MLS graduates have a deep understanding and appreciation of leadership dynamics, the convergence of leadership with other human relations, and the role of the individual as a leader in groups, organizations, and society. Through mastery of leadership theory and skills, graduates of the MLS program are prepared to perform as successful leaders in their work organizations, communities, nations, and world.

The MLS is an interdisciplinary professional degree program that draws upon the social and behavioral sciences, the humanities, communication, public policy, technology, and science to explore complex leadership issues and dilemmas. MLS students understand leadership as a process and as a relationship among people that transcends the setting. In addition, they gain a deep appreciation of the dynamics and responsibilities of leadership.
