M.A.C.L.M. Program Catalogs & Handbooks

The M.A. in Cultural Leadership & Management represents the evolution of our well-established M.A. in Cultural Sustainability, which has prepared culture workers since 2010. As we refine our curriculum for the MACLM framework launching in 2026-27, our core approach remains rooted in ethical leadership, community-centered practice, and applied cultural knowledge.

We're strengthening content in organizational leadership and management while maintaining our distinctive focus on working WITH communities and translating cultural understanding into effective practice.

The courses listed below represent our current offerings. Updated course descriptions aligned with MACLM learning outcomes will be available in Spring 2025. Questions? Contact Program Director Melanie Lytle at melanie.lytle@goucher.edu.
