Program details
Overview
The Master of Science in Environmental Economics and Management (MScEEM) is a graduate degree offered by TRU's Bob Gaglardi School of Business and Economics that combines management education with specialized knowledge in sustainability. Students complete required coursework together with either a graduate thesis or a graduate project, a research component the school notes can serve as preparation for PhD study or for careers in academia and consulting. The program takes 16 to 24 months to complete and is delivered on campus, online, or in a hybrid format, with full-time or part-time study available. It is open to both domestic and international students. Application deadlines for the September intake are July 31 for domestic applicants and May 1 for international applicants. The program suits managers and professionals across the public and private sectors who want to build applied research skills alongside management expertise in order to address the economic and environmental sustainability considerations increasingly shaping their organizations. Prospective applicants are directed to the program's admission requirements page and to the school's environmental economics and management contact for further details.

English proficiency requires a minimum academic IELTS score of 6.5 with no band below 6.0, or institutional equivalent. Applicants must also submit a personal statement of purpose, a resume, and two academic or professional reference letters; an interview is required if the IELTS score is below 7.0.

Application Details
Start Date:September
Application Deadline:Domestic applicants (Canadian citizens and permanent residents) apply directly to TRU: for the September (Fall) intake the deadline is 1 May, for January (Winter) it is 1 September, and for the May (Summer) intake it is 1 January; applications for most programs open 1 October, and a deadline falling on a weekend or statutory holiday moves to the next working day. International applicants follow the same intake structure with deadlines of 1 May (September), 1 October (January) and 1 February (May); TRU still reviews later applications where space remains, though high-volume programs can close early, so admission runs on a rolling basis around these published cut-offs for the 2027 entry cycle. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
