Individualized Concentration
Dr. Milne, M.S.A. Director and Concentration Adviser
This concentration is designed for individuals who have achieved career success in their chosen fields. Those admitted to the concentration will enhance their knowledge base by enrolling in an individually developed set of courses after consultation with and approval by the concentration adviser.
Curriculum (39-42 semester hours)
1. Administrative Core (18 semester hours)
ADM 501, 502, 503, 504, 505, and 507
2. Individualized Core (18 semester hours)
A. Required (3 credits)
ADM 600, focused on career goals
B. Electives (15 credits)
Subject to advisement and approval by concentration adviser. Courses to be selected from among 500-600 level WCU graduate courses designed to fulfill the personal program proposal.
3. Internship (3-6 semester hours)
Required for students without sufficient, relevant administrative experience. Internships are in addition to the 15 credit hours of electives for such students. Internships are not required for students with sufficient management experience. However, these students may enroll for relevant internships as part of the 15-hour elective credits requirement, provided the work requirements of such are different from the student's regular work assignments (i.e., students cannot earn internship credit by performing their regular work responsibilities). The internship arrangement/requirements are to be confirmed in writing.
