They only have one degree and in a specific concentration, MAOL... if they can add more degrees to that or at least other concentrations, that would be an interesting setup, people can decide to go with something other than Organizational Leadership. They have similar courses that can be bundled up into a MAM or MSM, Masters Arts/Science in Management or something.
A couple of master's are in the works. Don't expect them soon though. The MAOL is the first master's UMPI has ever offered. They don't offer any on campus. This is a Brandman/Strut degree. The faculty for it aren't from UMPI with the exception of Dr. Rice. Most UMPI faculty don't have doctorates especially in the business department so they can't teach grad courses. Accreditation dictates that. Most of the YourPace degrees are from Brandman/Strut. Very little has been created by UMPI so far, but they are working on changing this and hiring new staff including course developers.
