Complete your studies 100% online in as little as one year

The programme is delivered entirely online and can be completed in as little as one year. You can pursue an ambitious academic goal while continuing to build your career and maintain your commitments in Toronto.

A focused path to graduation means you can begin applying new ways of thinking to operational challenges sooner. Your study pace will depend on your circumstances, but the opportunity to finish in one year gives you a clear goal to work towards.

Study without scheduled online attendance

You do not need to be online at specific times or dates. Instead of arranging your life around live sessions, you can engage with your studies at times that work for you.

That flexibility can be especially valuable when work demands change or personal commitments arise. You can plan your learning around your schedule while continuing to make progress towards your degree.

Take your learning wherever you go

Study from Toronto, elsewhere in Canada or anywhere in the world. The online format allows you to keep learning when travel takes you away from your usual workspace.

Through the mobile app, you can download study materials and watch lectures offline. A commute, a business trip or time away from home can become an opportunity to keep moving towards your goals.

Show what you know through open-book assessments

The programme uses open-book assessments instead of classical question-and-answer exams. This approach invites you to work with ideas and resources as you develop your responses.

For students drawn to operations and analytics, it offers a way to demonstrate thoughtful reasoning and the ability to bring concepts together. The emphasis is on using what you have learned, not simply recalling it under exam conditions.

Learn from an accomplished international faculty

Your tutors and faculty bring academic backgrounds that include world-renowned institutions such as Oxford, Harvard, EPFL, the University of Basel and Washington University in St. Louis.

Learning with educators whose experience spans respected universities can broaden your perspective. Their guidance can help you explore challenging ideas and develop the confidence to apply them in your own professional context.

Join a worldwide learning community

Study alongside a diverse student body representing more than 130 countries. Different industries, experiences and perspectives can enrich discussions and help you see familiar challenges in new ways.

The wider alumni community includes people working for organisations such as Seneca College, Lakehead University, Manulife, the United Nations, Google, the ICRC, the World Bank, Microsoft, Intel, Samsung, Tencent, Siemens and Sony. From Toronto, you can become part of a network with connections across sectors and borders.

Plan your fees with interest-free instalments

The programme’s fees can be paid in up to 18 monthly interest-free instalments. This option lets you spread the cost over time as you plan your studies.

Clear monthly payments can make it easier to incorporate a degree into your financial plans while you continue living and working in Toronto.

Put your skills to work in Toronto

Toronto’s financial services sector relies on efficient processes, informed decisions and careful use of data. For graduates pursuing roles in banking, insurance or financial technology, operations management and business analytics can provide useful approaches to improving workflows and understanding performance.

The city’s technology companies and growing digital businesses also face questions about scale: how to serve more customers, allocate resources and measure results. The programme’s combination of operational thinking and analytical methods can help graduates contribute to those conversations, whether in an established organisation or a growing venture.

Across the Greater Toronto Area, manufacturing, distribution and logistics connect businesses to markets in Canada and beyond. Graduates can draw on the programme’s internationally applicable ideas when considering supply chains, service delivery and process improvement—bringing a broader perspective to the sectors that help keep the region moving.
