Business Post-Baccalaureate Diplomas

Business Post-Baccalaureate Diplomas are offered in the follow areas:

• Accounting
• Finance
• Human Resource Management
• Marketing

General

The Post-Baccalaureate Diplomas are aimed at students with a non-business degree who want to return to university for one or two years to acquire a specialty in a functional area of business in order to gain entry-level employment. Students with a first degree in business, but who want to change their area of focus, may also complete a Post-Baccalaureate Diploma.

The Post-Baccalaureate Diplomas offers more extensive course work than a MBA in the specific functional area, which better prepares students for pursuing a professional designation upon graduation. It will also take less time to complete than a full BBA degree.

The Post-Baccalaureate Diplomas are also of interest to International students who want to come to Canada to learn English, gain exposure to the culture, and study in a compressed format. Many have already studied business in their own country and should receive exemptions that will reduce the length of the program.

Part-time study is welcomed.
