Master of Science in
Management

The Master of Science in Management (MSM) degree program at Embry-Riddle Worldwide is designed for students who know their trade and whose next logical career move is to break into management or secure a promotion and increase their earning potential. The program integrates both theoretical and practical knowledge so that students are prepared to advance up the management ranks in their industry.

Crafted with industry partners, the Master of Science in Management is uniquely structured to provide a high-reliability organizations (HRO) foundation, a degree-specific core and a certificate of the student's choice. With HRO concepts such as risk management and mitigation woven throughout the program, students graduate prepared to succeed in the high-risk and complex environments of today’s organizations. In addition to the core classes, students can also dig deeper and explore the topics that excite them most by choosing from a collection of nine resume-boosting certificates. 

The program provides a greater emphasis on management and operations than a traditional MBA, teaching a blend of soft and hard skills designed to create well-rounded and capable managers. Courses are taught in a practical, hands-on manner with research opportunities in each class. Students who are currently in the workforce can "Learn it in class tonight. Apply it at work tomorrow."  

The curriculum is aligned with stringent industry demands, with accreditation from the Accreditation Council for Business Schools Programs.
