The International Management option aims to provide students with an understanding of the specific problems that arise in international business and to develop their decision-making skills to resolve these problems. Students can also deepen their knowledge in a specific area of international management.
Required courses cover the global business environment, including general concepts and the international institutional framework, as well as the design and implementation of policies and strategies by multinationals. These notions are examined from the perspective of Canadian societies. Students also have the opportunity to acquire a third language other than French and English.
Students in the international management option must obtain at least 12 credits of the program’s 120 compulsory credits during an exchange with one of the Telfer School of Management’s international partner establishments.
This program is offered in French and English. Learning a third language is encouraged.
