The classes in WilmU’s M.S. in Management program are very applicable to my current position as a business manager for my family’s business. Recently, I took a Strategic Management class and was able to immediately use the information I studied to complete strategic analyses for 5-year planning. — Joyce Moore, M.S. in Management
