Program details

Overview

The McGill-HEC Montreal Executive MBA is a joint degree delivered in partnership with HEC Montreal, combining the faculty, research, and alumni networks of both institutions. Grounded in Henry Mintzberg's managerial mindsets framework, the program is built around participants' real-world management experience and peer learning, with entrants averaging 18 years of work experience and 12 years in management. Delivery is bilingual in English and French and follows a modular format designed for working executives: one long weekend per month plus two intensive residential modules of seven to ten days, including an international module. The program runs 15 months, from September to August, followed by a final individual paper due in December, and emphasizes leadership, strategic thinking, and immediate workplace applicability.

Requirements

Admission Requirements: Candidates need a minimum of 10 years of work experience and 5 years of management experience, an undergraduate degree (candidates without one may still be considered given substantial managerial experience), and bilingual ability in English and French, with the capacity to speak and write in one language and read and understand the other; language testing may be required.
