Portland State University

Program Overview

PSU's Master of Nonprofit Leadership is for those who believe in the power of collective action for meaningful social change. MNL students are a part of the next generations of nonprofit leaders who work for the common good. In the MNL curriculum, we marry the best of theory and practice so that students gain critical insights into nonprofit leadership and management and the skills to affect meaningful change. Coursework focuses on four core areas: Foundations of the Nonprofit Sector and Nonprofit Leadership; the Fundamentals of Nonprofit Management; Analytic Skills; and Advocacy, Policymaking, and Community Change. Beyond these core areas, students enhance their knowledge with elective courses of their choosing and a community-based capstone project.
