“The master of management program was exactly what I was seeking for my professional career - a course-based, practical learning experience that would be highly relative to my role and career path. Graduate programs require analytical thinking and coming with practical knowledge can actually be helpful when applying and relating to the topics explored. I have found the courses to be extremely applicable for a management role and I am using my learnings daily.”

“My favourite part is the wide variety of subject areas the program touches on. It's an opportunity to acquire knowledge on topics that you may not yet have encountered in your previous education or employment experiences. The online nature of the courses offers good flexibility, but also tests your time management skills. Overall, the program is well suited to the generalist, which is realistic preparation for the world of management.”
