The Master of Organizational Management (MOrgM) offered by Crandall University is a people-focused program that prepares passionate professionals for leadership and management roles within their organizations. This differs from a Master of Business Administration (MBA) degree in that it will focus more on working with and through people than on the technical aspects of business administration. 

The Master of Organizational Management is intended for passionate, dedicated, team-oriented working professionals looking to maximize their potential in managing people and leading organizations. Unlike an MBA, which usually focuses specially on the basic business disciplines of accounting, marketing, and operations, the Master of Organizational Management is about developing big-picture strategies and understandings and especially the knowledge necessary to lead and motivate people.

Program highlights

The value of obtaining the Master of Organizational Management is that all organizations require effective management. The program uses an interdisciplinary approach and draws on the academic strength of faculty from a variety of disciplines who are excellent educators and typically build strong relationships with students.

Admission Requirements

Applicants to the Master of Organizational Management degree program should hold an undergraduate Bachelor’s degree (from any discipline), with a minimum grade point average of 3.0 (B) over the last two years of their program. Applicants should also have the equivalent of two years of full-time employment experience in any field and generally within the private, not-for-profit, and public service sectors. As part of the application process, applicants would be required to arrange for official transcripts from each previous post-secondary institution they attended to be sent directly to Crandall University from the issuing institution(s).

All applicants should submit, along with their application, a résumé and a cover letter. The letter should present their professional development goals and how the completion of the Master of Organization Management would help to meet and achieve their career ambitions. Applicants should also submit at least two professional reference letters from individuals who can provide input regarding the applicant’s strengths and why they support the applicant’s decision to complete the Master of Organizational Management degree. Given this information, each application will then be assessed on its own merit, but also in context with other applicants since enrollment will be limited each year. Applicants may also be interviewed.
