Program details
Overview
The Management Graduate Diploma consists of 24 units of coursework, with course substitutions available at the academic director's discretion, and is designed to be completed within three terms. Its curriculum blends interpersonal management skills with digital literacy and other performance-focused capabilities rather than following a single fixed course list, and the SFU calendar entry does not itemize specific course codes for the diploma, referring applicants to the Beedie School of Business's graduate programs page for further detail. Admission follows the general University admission requirements set out in Graduate General Regulations 1.3 of the SFU Calendar, alongside the academic requirements that apply to every graduate student regardless of program, with the Beedie School of Business handling program-specific inquiries and course-substitution decisions made case-by-case by the academic director rather than through a standing list of approved alternatives.
Requirements
Minimum GPA:2.50 / 4.33
Admission Requirements: This diploma has no field-specific prerequisite of its own beyond the University's general admission standard for a graduate diploma under Graduate General Regulation 1.3.5: a bachelor's degree from SFU or an equivalent from a recognized institution, a cumulative GPA of at least 2.5/4.33, or at least 2.67/4.33 (B-) on the final 60 undergraduate units, and references supporting the applicant's readiness for advanced study. Applicants are directed to contact the Beedie School of Business, or consult its graduate programs page, for further detail. No programme-specific English-language test score is published; SFU's general graduate policy of IELTS Academic 6.5 overall (6.0 per section) or TOEFL 90 overall (20 per section) applies to non-native English speakers.
