ABOUT THE PROGRAM

Learn While You Earn

Designed with working professionals in mind, the Rotman Morning MBA program (completed on a part-time basis over 32 months) offers classes outside of regular working hours, allowing you to study without sacrificing your professional or personal lives. Whether your goal is to advance in your organization or industry, or to start your own business, a Rotman MBA will give you the tools you need to compete and succeed.

Morning MBA classes begin in late August 2012. (The starting dates and schedules of the programs are subject to approval by Rotman governance committees). The curriculum is very similar to that of the full-time MBA Program.

Business Education to Fit Your Schedule

The Morning MBA features classes typically held two mornings per week, from 7:00 to 8:59 am. Orientation and pre-courses, held in late August, are offered to help you get up to speed and in an MBA frame of mind before the MBA program officially begins. As Evening MBA Zeeshaan Mustafa '12 writes in his student blog, "Orientation helped me feel immediately part of the Rotman community. I've built bonds that will last well beyond graduation."
