ABSTRACT
The Master of Public Management, Executive Track Online (EMPM Online) is a 10-course (30-credit) program that provides education for students pursuing a career in public service. The program grows students’ understanding of the financial, managerial, and ethical dimensions of leading government and public service organizations. Students learn various leadership and management approaches, in theory, and in practice, and develop analytic and critical thinking skills that allow them to better serve the public while advancing their careers.
