Program Overview

The best leaders never stop learning.

The M.S. in Leadership degree program is designed to provide students with leadership skills and training with practical application to become a leader within an organization. The program serves a dual purpose by addressing the growing needs of professionals in business and entrepreneurship as well as practitioners working primarily in education and human services settings.

Leaders and managers need more than technological and professional skills. In today's organizations, there is a need for effective leadership throughout all levels of the organization. Nova Southeastern University's new Master of Science in Leadership  degree program equips leaders at all levels to organize, motivate, and lead others to achieve organizational and team goals in all types of business, educational, and institutional entities.

This revolutionary degree offering brings together the best curricula, faculty members, and experiences of two exceptional NSU schools. The Fischler School of Education and Human Services and the H. Wayne Huizenga School of Business and Entrepreneurship designed the M.S. in Leadership degree program to give students an opportunity to blend leadership, business, and education in a way no other institution offers.

Students in the program take two core courses, co-developed by the faculty members of the Fischler and Huizenga schools. Students choose either a business and entrepreneurship track or an education and human services track to complete their degree. As a result of this approach, students gain the benefits of organizational leadership, education and human services, and the application of business principles.
