Chair: A. Franco
The design of the curriculum in Management is guided by our mission statement, which follows:
"The mission of the Department of Management at the University of Toronto Scarborough is to provide our students with the best pre-professional undergraduate management education in Canada. With special emphasis on our Co-op model of education, we aim to provide a coherent set of learning experiences that simultaneously teaches management skills and develops the capacity to think analytically about managerial, economic and societal problems and opportunities. Our faculty engages in nationally and internationally recognized research, which advances the frontiers of knowledge, serves the interests of our community, and brings new insights to our students. We will improve our students' current and future experiences by building and maintaining close links with private and public sector organizations, by helping students to bridge the gap between education and employment, and by providing a continuing and lively connection among current and former students of the Department."
The University of Toronto Scarborough offers the Bachelor of Business Administration (B.B.A.) degree to students who complete one of the Specialist/Specialist (Co-op) programs in Management. The Department of Management also offers a Certificate Program in Business. For more information, see the 6A.4 Certificate section of the Calendar.
Management Programs
We admit 500 students each year to the Specialist and Specialist (Co-op) programs in Management.
1. Most students are admitted directly from high school.
2. Also, a small number of students may be admitted at the end of the first year. The first round of admissions takes place at the end of the Winter session of their first year. The second round of admissions takes place at the end of the following Summer session. There are a limited number of places in the B.B.A. available to students beyond these two application periods. Students may apply until they have completed up to 10.0 credits. Students who have completed more than 10.0 credits are not eligible for admission to the programs. Since the number of students accepted in this category is very limited, students who are denied admission after the first year (in the periods at the end of the Winter session and the end of the Summer session in the first year) are strongly advised to contact the Academic Advising & Career Centre, to explore alternative program options.
Students must request only ONE Management program. Students who request a Management Co-op Subject POSt are automatically considered for Management Non-Co-op programs.
Students enrolled in a B.B.A. program offered by the Department of Management are not permitted to enrol in either the Major Program in Economics for Management Studies or the Minor Program in Economics for Management Studies.
Management Courses
There are enrolment limits on most Management courses including those offered in the Summer session.
Prerequisites
Students are responsible for ensuring that they have the prerequisites for all Management courses. Students who register for courses for which they do not have the appropriate prerequisites are denied access to those courses. A Standing Deferred (SDF) in a course does not meet the prerequisite for the subsequent course.
Overall course load limit for B.B.A. students
Students may take a maximum of 3.0 credits per semester. On occasion, B.B.A. students who have completed at least 12.0 credits and who have a CGPA of at least 3.5 may be permitted into an additional 0.5 credit course. Requests to add an additional course must be made in writing to the Management Academic Director at mgmtss@utsc.utoronto.ca. This must be done after the waitlist period has ended and before the last day to add courses for the session (see the Academic Dates available on the Office of the Registrar website). Students must provide an academic rationale for the request and include their name, student number, the course code, and the lecture section requested.
Notes:
1. Approval of a request to add a course outside Management and Economics does not guarantee a place in the course. Requests from students who do not meet the above criteria will not be considered.
2. UTSC Management courses are not open to students from other campuses. Similarly, St. George Rotman Commerce courses and UTM Management courses are not open to UTSC students.
Double Degrees: B.B.A./B.Sc.
The Department of Management, in partnership with the Department of Computer and Mathematical Sciences, offers the following Double Degree programs:
- Double Degree: B.B.A., Specialist Program in Management and Finance/Honours B.Sc., Specialist Program in Statistics, Quantitative Finance Stream
- Double Degree: B.B.A., Specialist (Co-op) Program in Management and Finance/Honours B.Sc., Specialist (Co-op) Program in Statistics, Quantitative Finance Stream
The Double Degree programs create an accelerated pathway for students who would otherwise have to complete two separate Specialist programs. They explicitly focus on finance and quantitative methods, providing students with a thorough education in both the business and the quantitative aspects of the financial industry. The Double Degree programs take advantage of existing synergies to allow students to complete both undergraduate programs and degrees within five years without compromising their learning experience. Students will complete a total of 25.0 credits and, for those enrolled in the Double Degree (Specialist Co-op programs), students must also complete three mandatory Co-op work terms. For more information, including Admission and Program requirements, see the Double Degree Programs section of the Calendar.
Experiential Learning and Outreach
For a community-based experiential learning opportunity in your academic field of interest, consider the course CTLB03H3, which can be found in the Teaching and Learning section of the Calendar.
Double Degree Programs
DOUBLE DEGREE: BBA, SPECIALIST PROGRAM IN MANAGEMENT AND FINANCE / HONOURS BSc, SPECIALIST PROGRAM IN STATISTICS, QUANTITATIVE FINANCE STREAM
Academic Directors:
S. Ahmed Email: mgmtss@utsc.utoronto.ca (BBA)
S. Damouras Email: sdamouras@utsc.utoronto.ca (BSc)
This Double Degree program combines the Specialist Program in Management and Finance and the Specialist Program in Statistics, Quantitative Finance stream. Students completing the Double Degree program will qualify to graduate with two-degree designations – the Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA) and the Honours Bachelor of Science (BSc), assuming all other degree criteria are met.
Enrolment Requirements
Enrolment in this Double Degree program is limited.
1. Students applying directly from high school are admitted on the basis of academic performance. They must have completed Grade 12 English, Grade 12 Advanced Functions, and Grade 12 Calculus & Vectors. Applicants must also submit a Supplementary Application Form.
Course Guidelines for Students Admitted to the Double Degree Program Directly from High School
Students must complete the following courses in their first year of study: MGTA05H3, MGEA02H3, MGEA06H3, MATA22H3, MATA30H3, MATA36H3, MGAB01H3, MGAB02H3, MGMA01H3 and MGTA35H3.
2. Students already pursuing a BBA program and degree may apply to enter the Double Degree program. The application can be made before the end of the Winter semester and/or before the end of the Summer semester. Application for admission will be considered only for the round during which the student has made the Subject POSt request. Students considering switching to the Double Degree program should consult with the program supervisors as soon as possible.
The minimum Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) for admission is calculated for each application period, and is based on University of Toronto courses only. Decisions are made when all grades have been received.
Students must have completed at least 4.5 credits (none of which can be designated as CR/NCR), including: MGTA05H3, MGEA02H3, MGEA06H3, MGAB01H3, MGAB02H3, MGTA35H3, MATA22H3, MATA30H3, and MATA36H3. Students who have taken the sequence [MATA32H3 and MATA33H3] instead of [MATA30H3 and MATA36H3] can still apply to the Double Degree program if they are taking or plan to take MATA36H3 at the time of application and could receive admission conditional on their grade in MATA36H3 being above a threshold to be specified each year. Note that MATA36H3 will be treated as an Extra (EXT) course in this case.
Students may apply until they have completed up to 10.0 credits. Students who have completed more than 10.0 credits will not be admitted to the Double Degree program. For those who apply with more than 4.5 credits, their CGPA at the time of application will be calculated with more weight assigned to the required courses listed under the 4.5 credits.
CGPA Requirement to Remain in the Double Degree (Specialist Programs)
In order to remain in the Double Degree, students must maintain a CGPA of 2.0 or higher after having attempted at least 4.0 credits. Students whose CGPA falls below 2.1 (but not below 2.0) will have the opportunity to move to either the non Co-op BBA Specialist Program in Management and Finance, or the non Co-op BSc Specialist Program in Statistics, Quantitative Finance stream. If they choose to stay in the Double Degree program and their CGPA falls below 2.0, they will be removed from the Double Degree program. Students removed from the program for this reason may request re-instatement if they complete at least 2.0 credits (none of which can be designated as CR/NCR) in the following session and raise their CGPA to at least 2.0. This opportunity will be provided only once.

The Specialist (Co-operative) Program in Economics for Management Studies is a Work Integrated Learning (WIL) program that combines academic studies with paid work terms in public and private enterprises. Depending on their needs and abilities, students work in areas such as accounting, public administration, auditing, communications, economic development, finance, human resources/personnel, information systems, marketing, policy, strategic planning and entrepreneurship.
This program will provide a specialization for those wishing for a substantial component of Economics in a Management degree leading to a B.B.A. It is designed to allow students to learn practical skills of data analysis and to combine them with the interpretive skills given by the knowledge of economic theory.
The Program operates on a trimester schedule, featuring three semesters (Fall, Winter and Summer) in each Calendar year. Students work or study in all three semesters for four years, or until graduation requirements are met. The Program requires eight four-month semesters of study and three four-month work terms. Students normally begin with three to five study terms (Fall, Winter and Summer), then alternate study and work terms. Students always conclude their degree with a study term.
Enrolment Requirements
