Learning Communication & Leadership Online: The Other MBA


Students have referred to MASCL as the MBA without the math, as an executive MBA or as an alternative to the MBA. One student remarked that, "an MBA is about management, while MASCL is about leadership." Along with engagement and regular participation in five highly interactive, team-based online modules, students are required to attend three on-campus residencies to practice their leadership and communication skills, as well as to socialize and network with their learning team, faculty and administrators. MASCL is an innovative student-centered program that uses a cohort model where students progress through the program as members of a very diverse learning team. The program draws business people, professionals and military personnel from all levels and positions within their organization, and from very diverse fields and industries (profit, nonprofit, business, management, professional, military - pharmaceutical, finance, health care, software, electric utilities, telecommunications, technology, sales, marketing, PR, corporate communication). A serious program for serious learners, MASCL appeals to individuals who are high achievers and have a desire to succeed.

We are currently accepting applications for the September 5 - 7, 2008 Orientation residency. You can find the online application and more information about the program on the MASCL website.

What a great blog! As a student of MASCL’s Learning Team 24, one of the things I like best about the program is its cohort model. After working in teams during undergrad, I never wanted to work in another team again and was skeptical about the cohort model. MASCL has top-notch, dedicated students that are supportive and collaborative, which fosters learning, fun, and friendship.
