In honor of your experience as a military service member for a minimum of 2 years active duty or 5 years in the reserves beyond any government-required term of service, you will automatically qualify for a 25% tuition scholarship towards Minerva's Master in Decision Analysis (MDA) or Certificate in Decision Analysis (CDA) program.
We hope that these programs will accelerate your ability to make profound organizational and societal change.
MASTER OF SCIENCE IN DECISION ANALYSIS

In this 21-month, part-time, remote graduate program, employees acquire key transferable leadership and analytical skills, through the practical application of frameworks and concepts across multiple contexts.
GRADUATE CERTIFICATE IN DECISION ANALYSIS
