Management in Nonprofit-Organisations (M.A.)

Master of Arts

Features of the degree program Management in Nonprofit-Organisations

Professional nonprofit management is a sought-after profession. Managers of foundations, associations, or social institutions require specific skills and know-how to reach the nonprofit aims of their organisations. The Master degree program Management in Nonprofit-Organisations provides instruction in just these qualifications.

Nonprofit-Organisations are quickly gaining in importance, and their numbers are growing rapidly. Yet this also means increased competition between them. Organisations must compete for donations, honorary members, or public esteem. "To survive this competition, a new type of manager is needed," says Prof. Dr. Gesa Birnkraut, head of the Master degree program. "Professionals with socio-political instinct are in high demand, professionals with sound management know-how who are familiar with the distinctive political and legal features of the nonprofit sector."
