Course details

Course Overview
TRU recognizes that many students need to balance work and life responsibilities with their studies. The convenience and flexibility of online MBA study allows them to advance their careers or change a career path with minimum disruption. Online students may begin the program in September, January or May.

In the online MBA courses, you study the same rigorous curriculum and often have the same instructors but you aren’t tied down with set class times. TRU’s online MBA courses are paced, meaning you have set start and finish dates and fixed assignment deadlines as you would in the on-campus courses. Please note that final examinations must be written in person at a local testing centre and are scheduled on weekdays during business hours. Dates for final examinations are set by our office and are included in the course registration information. No changes can be made to the scheduled examination date and time except under extenuating circumstances, such as illness or domestic affliction.

Technological innovations, such as lecture capture software and online collaboration, guarantee a high level of interaction between faculty and students and allow the program to maintain a learning atmosphere similar to being in a classroom. Distance learners, like on-campus learners, will work in teams analyzing and presenting cases as if they were on campus.

Career development activities such as workshops and guest speakers are extended to online MBA students utilizing tools such as live streaming video and online students have the option to attend any on-campus MBA events that they desire.
