MASTER OF ORGANIZATIONAL MANAGEMENT

One year, full time

The Master of Organizational Management (MOrgM) 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 focuses more on working with and through people than on the technical aspects of business administration.

The MOrgM is a one year, 30 credit-hour program for students who hold a Bachelor’s degree from nearly any discipline.

The program uses an interdisciplinary approach and draws on past work experiences.

The delivery pattern of the program allows students the flexibility to find part-time employment if desired (and permitted by an international student’s study visa –usually up to 24 hours per week);

Successful program completion makes international students eligible to apply for the Government of Canada’s three-year Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP).

Schedule

Students take courses over three consecutive semesters. Courses are typically offered in the evenings, and students generally attend classes two evenings per week.

Courses are delivered using various methods, including in-person, online, and combinations of both. Additionally, study hours outside of class time are required each week.

The Master of Organizational Management Program is completed in a structured cohort model, studying with local and international students.

Previous work experience is required for this program, and a minimum of five (5) years is preferred.

ALUMNI

Making an Impact

Shahin Faal, (MOrgM ’20):

Crandall University's Graduate program significantly enhanced my management knowledge, preparing me for the dynamic Canadian business environment. The supportive community at Crandall, including resources for international students, played a crucial role in my academic and personal development.

The professors' mentorship and Crandall’s focus on practical learning helped me transition smoothly into my career, culminating in my architectural license, PMP certification, and ultimately becoming a Partner at a local Architecture Firm.

Krishanthika Dassasnayake (MM ’22)

Crandall University and the program exceeded my expectations, providing me with the academic and professional skills I needed to succeed. After graduating in 2022, I joined the Multicultural Association of Greater Moncton (MAGMA) as a Client Support Navigator, and today, I work as an Executive Support Manager. I am thrilled to be able to help newcomer families in Moncton integrate into their new community.

I am also thankful for Crandall's supportive faculty and inclusive environment, which helped me build a rewarding career, and I’m excited about the future and the impact I can continue to make in my community.

Sharmaine Lim (MOrgM ’21)

Crandall University is dedicated to the growth and learning of its students as the staff are so friendly and helpful. I especially like the small size classes which are organized in such a way that the lectures are practical and can be applied to life in the workforce. Also, the diverse people in New Brunswick are warm & welcoming, and it feels quite like home.
