Master of Science in Administration Program
Central Michigan University’s Master of Science in Administration (MSA) degree provides the
knowledge and skills required for administrators and supervisors to function effectively in a wide
variety of administrative settings, plus the specialized processes and competencies needed for a
particular professional field.
The MSA requires a minimum of 36 graduate semester hours to complete the degree. The MSA
degree program consists of an administrative core, an administrative concentration, and an
integrative applied project.
The administrative core provides each student with a base of common knowledge and the
competencies required for successful professional administration. The administrative core
represents 15 semester hours of required classes and electives, based upon each student’s
individual program of study.
The administrative concentration selected by each student provides for specialization in a
specific career area. Eighteen semester hours are designated for an administrative concentration
that allows students to develop expertise in their area of professional interest within the degree
program. Six concentration options are available to the officers of the Command and General
Staff College (CGSC):
•
•
•
•
•
•
General Administration
Leadership
Human Resource Administration
Public Administration
Information Resource Management
International Administration
The MSA program culminates in a three semester hour integrative applied project that links the
concepts explored by each student and the working world, demonstrating the unity and
coherence of the student’s course of study. The integrative applied project is a capstone
assignment in which each student applies course content to specific administrative tasks. All
students take the Applied Research Project in Administration integrative analysis of
administration course.
