Admission onto the Master of Business Administration

Admission onto the Master of Business Administration is aimed at students with a four-year, post-secondary diploma and a minimum three years of prior experience in management.  

Selection of applicants is conducted based upon an application file, followed by an interview. The aim is to check each applicant’s potential and their ability to exceed and deconstruct standard management formats and models.
