Telfer School of Management

Everyone who joins the tight-knit community that makes up our management school is immediately engaged in the business of building a better Canada.

Our students are fully immersed in a learning experience that goes beyond the classroom and takes them out into the practical world, where they benefit from working with partners to make a real impact in their world.

This exposure prepares our students to become a new generation of leaders ready to apply their learning to the world around them. 

Our faculty devotes themselves to conducting leading-edge research that produces the insights and ideas that we use to shape our unique curriculum. 

Our staff is committed to providing the support that makes all this important work possible, united by a shared belief that better business means a better Canada, and that a better Canada means a better world.

Our Vision:

A greener, healthier, happier, wealthier Canada for all.

Our Mission:

To empower current and future societal leaders with the knowledge and tools to influence smarter decisions about policy and practice to create a better Canada.

What Sets Us Apart:

Telfer takes a results-oriented approach to the realization of a Better Canada. The research and data analysis we do generates the very same knowledge that we share with our students and with key constituencies in Canada and around the world. 

Telfer is driven by a passion for delivering positive societal outcomes in line with what we value: people, the planet, and profit. We measure our success in terms of how our actions align with macro, societal outcomes.

We educate our students, through course work and work experience to become better decision-makers. We share knowledge with current decision-makers to inform their policy choices, as well as illuminate the potential impacts of their options.

While other business schools concentrate on building capital, at Telfer, we are devoted to building a better world.
