Recent graduates and early-career professionals seeking the managerial skills necessary to lead in today’s dynamic business world now have a new option available exclusively at the ��Ѹ��Դ��߿�Ƭ of Lethbridge’s Calgary campus — the 16-month Master of Management (MMgt) program.

The new Master of Management will be offered exclusively through ULethbridge's Calgary campus.

Offered by the Dhillon School of Business, the MMgt is designed specifically for individuals with a non-business undergraduate degree. The program provides comprehensive training in essential management disciplines, including leadership, strategic planning, problem-solving, communication, team management, entrepreneurship, decision-making and more.

Dhillon School of Business Dean, Dr. Kerry Godfrey says students can be confident that the skills they will be learning in the master’s program are recognized and respected by employers worldwide, positioning them for managerial roles in their chosen fields.

“The competencies we are teaching in the Master of Management are those requested by employers, based on our review of labour market reports and in consultation with the business community,” says Godfrey. “Furthermore, students who come to the Dhillon School of Business can trust they are getting the most relevant management knowledge thanks to our AACSB accreditation, which ensures our curriculum meets rigorous global standards and aligns with the evolving needs of today’s business landscape."

The student experience for the Master of Management combines academic theory covering core business areas like accounting, finance, data analytics, marketing and human resources, with hands-on practice through in-class activities, case studies and a capstone project where students will work on solving a real business problem from a real company. The mix of business principles and practical application in the school’s supportive environment will give students confidence that they are well-prepared to tackle real-world challenges.

Graduates of the program can expect to be prepared for positions in management, consulting, project management and business development across a range of sectors.

The MMgt program’s first intake is Fall 2025. More information about the MMgt program can be found here.
