SUNY Potsdam’s graduate program in management is fully online and prepares students to be leaders in a broad range of careers and industries. This innovative and interdisciplinary program challenges students to learn about themselves and understand others, so they can motivate and manage teams effectively.

They then put their knowledge into practice, by tackling pressing issues for real-world clients, including through culminating professional projects.
Students can hone in on their interests by choosing from one of three in-demand tracks:
Solidify your standing as a leader of tomorrow, with coursework in teambuilding, organizational communications, project management, conflict resolution, change processes, entrepreneurship, innovation, social media strategy and delivering professional presentations.
