Education
The Master of Management degree focused on Organisational Development with electives in information technology management, organizational leadership or marketing management. I also completed certificates in Diversity Management and Conflict Resolution as part of the course.
My degree focus on Cell Biology and Environmental Biology with electives in Physics, Chemistry and Psychology. This degree was incomplete the degree because of financial and social constraints.
The Liberal Arts General Studies is a major offered under the liberal arts / sciences and humanities program of study at Roxbury Community College. My course focused on Economics, Business Law, African & World History and Spanish. The two-year course allowed me to secure br0dging credits between my incomplete Bachelor of Science and my Masters Degree.
