Learn how management thinking can help solve today’s organizational, business, and societal challenges. This program will show you how to navigate our rapidly changing world using collaboration, teamwork, and critical thinking, as well as teaching you to apply those skills to a number of disciplines.

The Bachelor of Management degree teaches management techniques that can be applied to many sectors. Over the four-year program, you’ll explore subjects such as sustainability, accounting, entrepreneurial technology, finance, negotiations, human resources, and marketing. You’ll also have the option to focus those skills in a particular topic area, with the chance to minor in computer science, cultural studies, economics, psychology, or sociology.

The program is a tight-knit and supportive learning environment, and helps you to pursue your interests and develop your community. When you graduate, you’ll be ready for employment in a variety of organizations and professional programs, or to enter graduate school. Some alumni choose courses that lead to professional designations such as Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA), Certified Human Resources Professional (CHRP), and Chartered Professional Accountants (CPA), while others go on to work at organizations from startups to ethical non-profits.

Experiential learning and research

The program has two required, hands-on projects:

The Live Case Challenge lets you apply your classroom learning and teamwork skills to solve a current issue faced by a partner organization.

The Capstone Service Learning and Consulting course includes immersive, team-based work that explores connections among students’ disciplines and the challenges that are being faced in the off-campus community.

You’ll also have the option to explore research in the management field through a directed studies course, where you’ll do supervised research at the undergraduate level with a faculty member. As well, you’ll be part of the Management Student Association (MSA) on the Okanagan campus, which allows you to connect with other students and build your support system, and participate in local, national, or international competitions and conferences.

To broaden your experience, you can choose to take part in the Co-op program, where you’ll gain real-world experience in a job relevant to your interests while getting paid. If you’re hoping to go further afield, you can take part in Go Global and complete a semester abroad while collecting UBC credit for your studies.
