Overview

Success in today’s global economy requires organizations to have visionary leadership, 360-degree view of customers, and the ability to formulate and execute strategic initiatives. The Master of Science in Organizational Leadership and Innovation will help prepare students to transform their organizations by using innovation to drive measurable outcomes. Our graduates anticipate the future and see opportunities to position their organizations—and themselves—to reach new levels of success in a constantly changing world. Students will be equipped with the tools to spearhead innovative projects and enable their organization to embrace the changes that come with innovation. Courses focus on technological changes and their implications for leadership, developing the ability to foresee emerging trends and technologies, creating strategies to exploit the foresight, leading teams of innovators, creating a work environment that encourages experimentation, and enabling individuals to change, adapt, and evolve. The MS in OLI is awarded upon successful completion of 33 credit hours culminating in a final research thesis. The program is offered in a face-to-face mode of delivery in our campus at RIT Dubai. Courses are taught by distinguished RIT Dubai faculty who have knowledge and expertise in leadership, change management, innovation, strategy, foresight, ethics, negotiations, and human resource management.
