Smith School of Business offers four unique ways to earn your MBA degree. In addition to our world-renowned Full-time MBA program, offered at our Kingston campus, we offer three programs that allow managers to study while they work in locations across Canada: the Executive MBA, the Executive MBA Americas (a dual degree program), and the Accelerated MBA for those with an undergrad degree in business.
Accelerated MBA for Business Graduates
Make an impact and fast-track your career. Earn your MBA degree in just 12 months in this accelerated program designed specifically for people with an undergraduate degree in business (or equivalent) and a minimum of two years relevant work experience. Starting in January, with classmates across Canada, you can earn your MBA while you continue to work.
Executive MBA - The National Program
Expand your horizons and career opportunities. Gain outstanding learnings and insights on the cutting edge of business management. Improve your readiness to operate within a global business context. Earn the degree while working and staying in your home city.
Offered anywhere in Canada, the program has numerous optional features that can be personalized around your individual strengths and aspirations. Designed for working managers and executives, this 16-month program starting in August enables you to earn your MBA while you continue to work.
Executive MBA Americas - a Cornell-Queen's Partnership
The Executive MBA Americas program is the only program of its kind in the world. This 18-month program is available in major cities across North and South America, and is made possible through a partnership between two of North America's premier business schools — Smith School of Business at Queen’s University and the Johnson School of Management at Cornell University in New York.
Graduates of the program earn MBA degrees from both Cornell and Queen’s and are considered to be full-fledged alumni of both schools. Classes are led by outstanding faculty from both schools; the classroom experience is shared by participants from Canada, the USA and Latin America with residential sessions held at both campuses.
Full-time MBA
If you’re looking to advance your career and be leadership ready, this is the MBA for you. The 12-month, Full-time MBA takes a flexible and highly personalized approach that allows you to build the right program for your career goals. The program is designed to develop exceptional leaders, valuable team members and highly effective managers.
In today’s competitive environment, there are some career paths that demand a level of technical specialization beyond the scope of an MBA program. The Full-time MBA double degree options are designed to accommodate these demands by allowing you to apply some of your MBA credits to a second Master’s degree; there are six double degree options to choose from.
