disciplines such as economics, mathematics and accounting. “Larger university faculties may not be able to coordinate across these disciplines like we do,” Boeh said. The masters program targets new and recent graduates, and is an intensive program that will take 10 months to complete, rather than the more traditional two years for an MBA, he said. Because of the small class size that is traditional at PLU, professors will have the opportunity to focus on the individual, he noted. The PLU MSF aligns

The wide exposure to theory and application in our courses is excellent preparation for the kinds of analyses they will be expected to

The team-building and applied mental skills interventions I learned at PLU greatly enhanced my skills as a coach and facilitator in all my professional roles. As I seek to take the next step in my educational and professional journeys, I was eager to jump at the opportunity to join PLU’s inaugural cohort in the MSK program to continue to learn

This has allowed me to either succeed or fail all on my own. Why did you choose the MSMR program? The program was actually presented to me while I was pursuing job opportunities with my mathematics degree. Last year, I went to the capstone presentations of the 2018 MSMR cohort and I was deeply impressed by the students and their projects
