Management, Rotman School: Management Full-Time and Extended Full-Time MBA

The Full-Time Rotman MBA is an intense program that combines 16 months of academic study with a 4-month opportunity for a paid internship. The program begins with a core curriculum that introduces Rotman's unique problem-solving and creative methodology with the fundamental disciplines of business. Students have the opportunity to customize their MBA experience by choosing to complete an emphasis in one of 10 areas, develop a broader skill set with over 90 elective courses, and accelerate their career through the experiential learning component of the Flexible Internship program. As the practice of management evolves over time, so do the elective courses and areas that Rotman offers in any given year.

Students are required to complete the course Applied Management: Placement in conjunction with a work placement which may be done in the Summer, Fall, or Winter sessions. Depending on their academic area of study and career objectives, students will be guided on the best work term option to secure a placement with an employer. Throughout their work placement, students will benefit from enhanced communication with their host employers, tracking of project deliverables, and feedback from faculty supervisors.

Rotman offers three core strategic areas — an innovative curriculum, tailored career services, and the Self-Development Lab — to develop the skills and experiences students need to accelerate in their careers as high-value decision makers and business leaders. Whether their aim is to make a career switch, accelerate their current career, or start their own business, the Rotman MBA enables students to reach their professional and personal goals.

The Extended Full-Time (Morning/Evening) Rotman MBA programs are designed for working professionals in the Greater Toronto Area. The 32-month, cohort-based format allows working professionals to continue working while studying for their MBA. Students may explore new directions, expand leadership skills, and build close ties with a lifelong network. There are two program options:

  • The Morning MBA allows working professionals to complete their master's before work — from 7:00 to 9:00 am, two mornings a week.

  • The Evening MBA allows students to get a fresh perspective on real-world challenges from globally renowned faculty after work — from 6:30 to 8:30 pm, two evenings a week.

In the second half of the MBA program, students have the choice to specialize in a career path with a range of electives, including those taught during regular working hours.
