Create Your Own PathManagement careers beyond the mainstream
Thinking about a degree in
business but not sure you’re cut out
for the corporate life?
Have a project or business idea and
need the skills to make it happen?
Want to make a difference in the
not-for-profit world?
Consider a Management degree from the University of Lethbridge.
At the Faculty of Management, we have the programs and
opportunities that are in demand for a traditional business
degree, and we can also help you explore your career
options if you have a passion in another area.
Many of our grads have taken their knowledge and skills
and built careers in the arts, communications, public
relations, humanitarianism, event planning, education,
medicine, music and entertainment, to name just a few.
You can enhance your educational experience and diversify
your skills through opportunities such as Co-operative
Education, international exchanges and the Integrated
Management Experience, where students implement an
annual fundraising project in support of a not-for-profit
organization.
The Faculty is also adding two brand-new combined
degrees in Fall 2012. Students will be able to register for the
Management and Health Sciences (Public Health) degrees or
the Management and Fine Arts (New Media) degrees.
Wherever your goals and aspirations may lead you, we can
help you create your own path to get there.
Contact us today to find out how to get started.
