Blended Online MBA

Designed with the working professional in mind, the Career Advance MBA Pathway gives learners the freedom to learn from anywhere and at their own pace. The curriculum embraces student’s existing expertise and uses a balance of theory, analysis, and day-to-day practice to prepare learners to respond strategically to complex management issues and devise innovative, relevant, and real-world solutions to an organization’s challenges.

The Faculty of Management’s part-time blended online delivery model ensures that participants can complete their MBA degree without losing career momentum in as little as 2.5 or as many as 7 years. In each of the three academic terms, students choose from a list of wide-ranging courses balancing their learning needs with their lifestyle and professional responsibilities.

Students within this pathway develop a diverse set of fundamental business skills through our core curriculum. The Dalhousie edge is its blended online learning model which allows for the flexibility of online learning while providing the opportunity to develop rich personal connections with your classmates through face-to-face intensives. Students spend 3.5 days at the end of each term in locations such as Halifax, Toronto, Calgary, or Vancouver. Activities and goals of intensives can vary depending on the nature of the class and instructor. They may include lectures, presentations, simulations, group activities, individual assignments, and guest speakers.
