    A friend is applying to this online program in nonprofit management

    University of Central Florida
    MNM, Master of Nonprofit Management

    Relying in part on past threads here and elsewhere, I've put together a short list of alternatives with "nonprofit management" or something very close in their titles. I thought I might share them!

    Of course nonprofit management can often be approached through many programs in general business administration, public administration, management or leadership, human services, social work, etc.

    University of Connecticut
    MPS, Master of Professional Studies in Humanitarian Services Administration

    Metropolitan State University
    MPNA, Master of Public and Nonprofit Administration

    Regis University
    MNM, Master of Nonprofit Management

    University of New England
    MSM in Nonprofit Leadership

    Corban University
    MBA in Non-Profit Management

    Hope International University
    MBA or MSM in Non-Profit Management

    American Public University System
    MBA in Nonprofit Management
    Graduate Certificate in Nonprofit Management

    Capella University
    MNML, Master of Nonprofit Management and Leadership
    Post-Baccalaureate Certificate in Nonprofit Management and Leadership

    Walden University
    MS in Nonprofit Management and Leadership
    Graduate Certificate in Nonprofit Management

    Kennesaw State University
    MS in International Policy Management

    George Mason University
    Graduate Certificate in Nonprofit Management

    Am I the only one to find it ironic that several of these programs in non-profit management are offered by for-profit schools? :smile:

    Well, plenty of non-profit schools offer programs in business (i.e. for-profit) administration.

    So for-profit schools (i.e. businesses) can offer programs in non-profit administration. Seems fair.

    The Univ of Rockies has a MA in Psych with spec. in Non-Profit Mngt, if your friend wants to approach non-profit work from that POV.

    On the negative side, I'm surprised Liberty Univ does not offer a pure MNM. With all the ministry-minded people that must come to their doors, I would think there would exist an opportunity for them.

    The Indiana University School of Public and Environmental Affairs (SPEA) now offers its Master of Public Affairs online:

    Online MPA Curriculum: Master of Public Affairs: SPEA Connect

    Your friend could also do SPEA's graduate certificate in nonprofit management:
    SPEA Connect: Certificate in Nonprofit Management

    Across all disciplines, there aren't many schools with a higher ranking that offer online programs. Indiana is the #2 ranked school of public affairs and the nonprofit management program is ranked #1.

    The hospital group I work for is a non-profit (after working for an OEM for 13 years which is profit driven) and they care just as much about the bottom line/nights stayed/and reimbursements as anyone else...they just donate $150M a year to the community instead of inflated bonuses...which I miss :pat:

    University of Iowa
    Certificate in Nonprofit Management
    18 semester hour credit certificate. Courses seem to have undergraduate numbering. The certificate requires a bachelor's from another school, or undergraduate enrollment at UIowa.

    I'm amazed Freedom Univ does not provide a genuine MNM. With all the ministry-minded individuals that must come to their gates, I would think there would be available any chance of them.

    Never heard of them. Do you have a link?
