Rapid change in the global social and economic climate has created a growing need in the museum community for professionals who combine appropriate undergraduate study (in topics like art or art history) with graduate training in business management and museum studies. In order to meet this need, the Lerner College and UD's College of Arts and Sciences offer a MBA concentration in museum leadership and management. This unique program can help you build a rewarding career in museums, historical organizations or other associated enterprises. The University of Delaware Master of Business Administration (UD MBA) program provides a select group of students with a relevant, advanced business management education. Coursework integrates the functional areas of business, while preparing graduates for positions of greater responsibility in corporations, small businesses, consulting firms, government, or non-profit organizations. The core of the program provides students with the tools, analytics, and frameworks necessary to drive effective evidence based decision-making. This set of skills, knowledge, and competencies allows for the successful management and leadership of organizations operating in an environment of scarce resources, rapid change, and global competition.
