mgr Grażyna Budzińska, MBA
Dear students and friends of Clark University,
Welcome to Clark University College of Professional and Continuing Education Graduate Programs. We were established in the U.S. over three decades ago to bring to adult students the same quality graduate education that has characterized Clark University since its inception in 1887 as the second oldest post-baccalaureate institution in the United States.
As organizations reflect on issues such as quality assurance, reengineering, strategic global marketing, and conflict in the workplace, it becomes increasingly clear that the
successful firm is one that can communicate effectively with its internal and external
