"While some may consider the pursuit of maximum profit and wealth as prime activities of business, Huntington students are challenged to consider the use of profit and wealth to serve God's creation," says Dr. Ann McPherren. "Our not-for-profit program prepares future human-service professionals to work with America's youth and families as Christ's redemptive agents."

As a student in the Not-for-Profit Management program at Huntington University, you will take classes in a variety of academic disciplines, including management, accounting, economics, business law, and mathematics. You will receive a strong academic preparation using the same technology you'll encounter in the workplace. 

At Huntington University, you will gain the analytical and problem-solving skills necessary for success in the nonprofit sector. You will graduate with a broad, well-balanced education that expands your career opportunities and prepares you for graduate study.

As a Huntington student, you can be mentored by successful management professionals through a variety of internship opportunities. Through our Executive-in-Residence Program and Visiting Executive Seminars, you will wrestle with contemporary business issues alongside fellow students, faculty and regional business leaders.

Your classes will not be taught by "graduate assistants," which is common at most larger universities. Instead, you will be individually instructed by exceptionally credentialed faculty who will challenge you to think critically, work diligently and integrate faith with your studies.

You will be challenged by classroom discussions with students, professors, and visiting executives from a wide range of backgrounds and experiences. You will learn alongside other students majoring in accounting, economics and finance, business education, not-for-profit management and small business management (entrepreneurship). The Department also offers a minor in marketing and in management information systems (MIS).
