Overview

The Institute for Management & Innovation (IMI) is a hub that fosters inter- and transdisciplinary research and scholarship in the area of innovations of human, social, and organizational processes and transformational leadership, and develops high-calibre programs that are informed by and reflective of these activities. IMI produces transformational leaders with breadth and depth in one or more chosen fields of science, social science, humanities, and the professions and a focus on innovation as it applies to human interaction and relationships with society and technology, all closely linked to the external community.

IMI provides students with a platform to explore their scholarship in an environment that introduces them to different forms of analyses and critical thinking, solidifying their understanding of the questions and issues at hand. At the heart of IMI is a dedication to experiential education and work-integrated learning in academic programming. IMI offers professional master’s programs in professional and forensic accounting, biotechnology, innovation management, urban innovation, and sustainability, and an undergraduate minor in business, science, and entrepreneurship. IMI is also home to the BIGDataAIHUB and executive education (IMIx) and entrepreneurship support (ICUBE) programs.
