Management (MiM)
The Master in Management degree (MiM) provides in-depth training and development in the key areas of technology, innovation and operations management; as well as in data analytics.
Designed through a partnership between industry and academia, the degree addresses the most pressing challenges and opportunities facing organizations in all industries. The MiM engages students in reflections on how the interplay of these topics affects contemporary workplaces and can be managed.
The MiM degree attracts career-driven individuals with an undergraduate degree and work experience who are seeking additional management credentials. The program welcomes individuals in a variety of disciplines and this environment is conducive to innovation and building a broader personal network. In this course-based program, the offerings are flexible and include interactive asynchronous online courses and face-to-face interactions. The expected time to graduate is 1 year (full-time) or 2 years (part-time); maximum time allowed is 5 years.
The MiM degree offers 2 specializations: 1) Technology, Innovation and Operations Management (TIO) and 2) Data Analytics (DA). Students in both streams start and end their program with 2-week intensive bootcamps on campus. In between these 2 bootcamps, TIO students complete 6 courses online (option to take 2 of these courses in-person, which meets PGWP requirements for international students). DA students complete 4 courses on campus and 2 courses online.
Note for international students: To qualify for a Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP) you must complete more than 50% of your courses in-person (as opposed to online) and you must be a full-time student. Sufficient courses are offered in both specializations to meet this requirement.
Admission Requirements
Applicants must hold a 4-year Bachelor of Business and Administration or other similar degrees. The minimum acceptable CGPA (Cumulative Grade Point Average) is 3.0 (out of 4.0), equivalent to a "B.” Applicants with other relevant degrees, a professional designation, or extensive professional experience may be considered. Data Analytics applicants need to demonstrate quantitative skills for entry, with a degree in business, economics, physics, statistics, finance, math, engineering, or relevant experience.
