Program details
Overview
The Master of Science in Management is a thesis-based graduate program at the Moncton campus, requiring full-time enrolment throughout its two-year (24-month) duration. The 45-credit program includes 36 mandatory credits covering research foundations, research methodology, directed readings, a thesis seminar, and 21 credits of thesis work, plus 9 elective credits selected in consultation with the program director and thesis supervisor. Students choose a concentration from seven areas: accounting, finance, operations and innovation management, human resources management, general management, marketing, or organizational information systems, and must secure a thesis supervisor from the graduate faculty at the outset of the program. The thesis is defended publicly. Admission requires a bachelor's degree in business administration with a specialization in the chosen field (or equivalent), completion of an undergraduate statistics course, functional knowledge of English, a motivation letter, a completed interest questionnaire, and proficiency with Microsoft Word and Excel. The program suits graduates seeking to conduct original supervised research within a specific management discipline, as preparation for doctoral study or research-intensive roles in industry or academia.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: Admission requires satisfying the general graduate admission conditions (University Regulation 22.1) and holding a bachelor's degree in business administration specialized in the chosen field, or equivalent training in a related area, meeting the average required by Regulation 22.1. Applicants must have completed an undergraduate statistics course, demonstrate functional knowledge of English, and have basic proficiency in MS Word and MS Excel. Candidates submit the program's university and professional interest questionnaire along with a letter of motivation.
Application Details
Start Date:Fall session only (no winter/spring intake)
Application Deadline:Canadian and permanent-resident applicants apply directly to Université de Moncton by recurring annual deadlines that carry no published calendar year: 31 August for autumn-term entry and 5 January for winter-term entry, with the Baccalauréat en science infirmière (Nursing) and Baccalauréat en design intérieur due 1 February, and the 16-month Baccalauréat en éducation due 1 February at the Moncton campus or 30 June at Shippagan/Edmundston. International applicants must apply by 31 May for autumn entry and 30 September for winter entry, with the 16-month Baccalauréat en éducation due 1 February at Moncton or 31 May at Shippagan/Edmundston. Applications received after these dates are automatically deferred to the following session, and Université de Moncton may close applications earlier if volume is high, so admission is firm rather than rolling. The admissions page's only calendar-year reference is to the Automne 2026 term already under way (registration closes 4 September 2026, classes begin 9 September 2026), which places the source's current context in the 2026-27 academic year; the next occurrences of the recurring deadlines above therefore fall in Hiver 2027 and Automne 2027. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
