From the late 1950s through the 1970s, the school offered a Master’s in Industrial Administration. By 1973, after receiving a donation from alumnus Frederick W. Beinecke, the institution re-established itself as the School of Organization and Management. From 1976 to 1994, the School of Organization and Management offered a two-year Master’s in Public and Private Management, until it re-organized once more as the Yale School of Management. After which, the school discontinued offering the Master’s in Public and Private Management degree. In 1999, the school officially introduced its MBA program.
