Overview

Getting there usually means being there. So it's fitting that a master's degree I in Operations Management from Manderson would do things a little differently.

This 30-hour online program is flexible, instructive and wherever you are. By taking two courses per semester, working professionals can complete the degree in less than two years. Operations Management focuses on the operations of a business, including producing and delivering goods and services. Professionals in this field use quantitative tools to analyze and design business operations, and to make decisions effectively so that you can start anywhere and finish anywhere.
