CONCENTRATIONS:
- In the English professional and intensive MBA, you can customize your degree to gain the specialized skills and expertise that employers want.
- Select from one of four concentrations that include Digital Transformation & Analytics (DT&A), Finance, Management Consulting, and Sustainable Management.
- Note that concentrations are offered based on availability and sufficient demand. They may not be available to each cohort.
- The French professional MBA allows you to complete your degree with a concentration in Management Consulting.
OPTIONAL INTERNSHIPS:
- Put your knowledge and skills into practice right away. The optional internship, (6 units), would normally be pursued over two terms, but could also be compressed into one.
- Students who wish to take the additional internship option will declare that after completing their first term in the program. They will be informed about the process and eligibility criteria during that term.
ENGAGING TEACHING:
- Fifty students—that is the maximum number of students in each cohort of our program.
- They keep the overall cohort and individual class sizes small so that the program itself and every course within it are engaging, providing meaningful opportunities for you to participate thoughtfully with your professors and peers.
- For the professional MBA in French, if you reside in the National Capital Region, you are required to attend both in-person and online courses.
- If you live outside Ottawa, you may attend online distance learning courses at the same time as your on-campus peers.
- Teaching strategies are based on the active participation of the students.
- The strategies typically used in the classroom (small group work, debates, problem solving, case studies) are also suitable for hybrid learning.
- In addition, the online learning platform tools that are used (chat, polls, whiteboard, virtual workspaces) facilitate remote engagement.
