Program details

Overview

This is a 30-credit undergraduate certificate in sustainable transition management at HEC Montreal, taught in French at the Cote-des-Neiges campus and delivered in a hybrid format, with part of the courses given one week online and the next week on campus. Students complete ten courses: eight mandatory courses covering sustainable development, circular economy, social responsibility, ethical management, and responsible marketing, plus six specialization courses and two elective courses. The curriculum builds understanding of global sustainability challenges and change-management skills, and develops innovative, circular approaches to problem-solving grounded in environmental, social and governance (ESG) issues. The program is designed mainly for part-time study, though full-time enrolment is possible, and can be combined with another HEC Montreal certificate and a Universite de Montreal program toward a baccalaureat par cumul.

Requirements

Admission Requirements: For applicants from the Quebec education system, admission requires one of: a Diplome d'etudes collegiales (DEC); 30 completed university-level credits in a program (minor, major, certificate, or bachelor's); or four years of full-time work experience (counted from age 18, in any sector, including experience acquired abroad). Applicants from other education systems need a secondary diploma equivalent to 12 years of schooling combined with one year of university study (60 ECTS or equivalent), or the same 30-credit or four-year work-experience alternatives. An intermediate-advanced level of French is required, demonstrated through prior schooling or by passing a recognized French test or language course.
