MA Completion
This is a professional, skill-based degree, which does not require a thesis. Students are given two exams to determine competency in skills: one comprehensive written exam and one oral exam (in a unique Naropa tradition known as a “warrior exam”) designed to help integrate one’s intellectual and personal understanding of the material. Students also complete documentation, presentation and formal assessment of their applied leadership project. Graduating students also receive an Authentic Leadership certificate from Naropa University's Marpa Center for Business & Economics.
