The Nonprofit Concentration prepares students to become innovative and critical thinkers in the areas of nonprofit organizational management and public policy. The Nonprofit Concentration’s unique design bridges theoretical knowledge with real-world experience. As our students prepare for their careers or advancement in their current positions, they gain insight into the interdependence between the nonprofit, public, and for-profit sectors. The Nonprofit Concentration prides itself in graduating leaders who are capable of spanning the boundaries of these three sectors to asses community needs, navigate the realm of public policy, and strategically and effectively manage organizations that ultimately benefit society.
