University of Alberta

Faculty

Your professors are teachers first and foremost: their job is to open up the black box and expose you to new possibilities and new experiences based on the latest management research. Bur your professors are also mentors and coaches.

You will benefit directly from the fact that our Executive MBA program is a partnership between the University of Calgary and the University of Alberta. By pooling our resources, we have 140 professors - the largest business faculty in the country - and the depth to ensure you get the best professor in a particular discipline.

Faculty are PhD-qualified and have won numerous national and university teaching honours such as the 3M Teaching Fellowship and the National Post "Leaders in Management Education" Award. The faculty stay current by doing consulting work for leading companies internationally and by teaching in executive development programs. Our faculty are a valuable resource, not only while you're in the program, but for the rest of your professional career.
