Lehigh University’s College of Business offers a STEM-designated master's degree in management.
The MS in Management (MiM) curriculum includes 14 courses (33 credits) in total. Preparing students for business roles through a rigorous curriculum and distinctive professional development opportunities distinguishes the MS in Management from other management degrees.
Course work focuses on the core areas of business management such as accounting, finance, statistics, management, economics and marketing. Graduate faculty use lecture, case studies and classroom discussion, with the program culminating in a capstone course that ties together all the learning and concepts with a hands-on business simulation.
Experiences inside and outside the classroom make you a more valuable asset to a broad range of organizations and roles. A comprehensive one week orientation defined by exposure to professional development and business leaders provide context for the program.
