MA in Non-Profit Management

MA in Non-Profit Management Program Overview

Around the world, non-profits and nongovernmental organizations are delivering much-needed services, advocating for social causes, and mobilizing for collective impact. In fact, there are 1.5 million non-profits registered in the United States alone and over 10 million NGOs worldwide.

This substantial growth within the social sector requires skilled leaders, managers, and staff to strengthen its operations and implement best practices. Johns Hopkins’ online Master of Arts in Non-Profit Management is the first of its kind to be international in scope and domestic in practice. Students acquire the leadership, management, and organizational skills needed to succeed in the non-profit sector, either domestically or abroad. This MA program offers courses that focus on leadership, fundraising, grant writing, strategic planning, project management, marketing, communications, and resource development. Students complete their studies with a capstone project that concentrates on a real-world issue relevant to today’s non-profits.
