EXCELLENCE & EXPERTISE

U of T is consistently rated among the world’s best

universities, the Rotman School of Management

is among the top international business schools,

and departments such as Economics are globally

recognized centres of excellence. What’s at the

heart of this impressive reputation? In a word—our

faculty. Your teachers at Rotman Commerce are

renowned and respected thinkers, business leaders,

and researchers. In your classes, you will benefit

from their experience and insight—learning important

lessons that will help guide your steps as you begin

to forge your own unique path.

A WORLD OF CHOICE

We believe that your business knowledge can take

you much further when coupled with an understanding

of the world beyond the boardroom. You can choose

to specialize in accounting, finance and economics,

or management, each of which will give you a strong

base in the core areas of business (accounting, business

economics, finance, marketing, organizational behaviour,

strategy, and operations). You will also pursue advanced

study in the liberal arts and sciences—subjects such as

psychology, political science, English, computer science,

or just about anything else you have an interest in.

With over 2,000 Arts and Science courses to

select from, your education will be as well-rounded

as your inclinations and passions.

CONNECTIONS & COMMUNITY

A North American business hub, the downtown

core of a vibrant metropolitan city, a historic campus

just minutes from Canada’s financial epicentre—it

all comes together here at Rotman Commerce.

As a member of our diverse and close-knit student

body, you’ll have countless opportunities to connect

with the world’s best-known companies, our extensive

network of successful alumni, and a wide range

of professionals from Toronto’s thriving business

community, not to mention a community of like-

minded students who will become your friends,

mentors, and colleagues over the course of your

studies and beyond.

HANDS-ON EXPERIENCE

Today’s competitive business world demands that

students be prepared to work in teams, be effective

communicators, and have demonstrable and relevant

leadership experience. At Rotman Commerce, your

curriculum will include vital teamwork, presentation,

and communication skills. Outside of the classroom,

you will find hundreds of opportunities to gain

valuable leadership experience – in our student

groups, through workshops and competitions, through

peer-mentoring and volunteering. And if your

interests include areas outside of commerce, there

is no better place to explore them than at U of T.

OUR PROGRAM

YOUR POSSIBILITIESWHEN YOU CHOOSE ROTMAN COMMERCE, YOU’RE CHOOSING

MORE THAN JUST A BUSINESS PROGRAM. YOU’RE OPTING FOR AN

ALL-ROUND EXPERIENCE THAT WILL GIVE YOU THE TOOLS YOU

NEED TO BUILD YOUR ROAD TO SUCCESS.
