The Corporate Residency MBA offers a 22-month innovative, industry-informed and rigorous curriculum combined with an 8-month paid work experience (corporate residency). Students typically make $25-45K on their residencies, and 98% of students have secured employment in their field of choice within 6 months of graduation. The goal of the program is to help high achieving, self-motivated individuals with leadership potential launch their careers and accelerate professional development.

Our first year integrated core curriculum of business courses provide a solid foundation for advanced study, and success on the corporate residency. In addition to further exploration of the functional areas of business, 2nd year students leverage the Faculty of Management’s unique, inter-disciplinary, values-led approach to management education.
Unique to Dalhousie is our Personal and Professional Effectiveness (PPE) courses providing students with the relevant, practical leadership skills they need to accelerate their career. Anchored by the core pillars of self-management, engagement, creativity, complexity and leading and influencing, PPE was developed using input from our employer partners.

Admission Requirements
All degrees welcome
We are looking for “high potential career launchers” from every discipline. Corporate Residency MBA students share a sense of how to transfer skills and experience acquired in Arts, Science, Health, Engineering, Business and other degrees into a managerial context along with a willingness to take on a steep learning curve and strive to be the best they can be.
No work experience required
Are you ready to pivot?
In many cases the diversity in our classes comes from students “pivoting” out of different career paths. You may have been considering a career in medicine, law, dentistry, pharmacy or engineering, then realized you don’t quite fit or that there might be something else out there. Are you curious about the unlimited opportunities and earning potential that are on offer for Dalhousie Corporate Residency MBA graduates?
Are you a blender?
Other students that come to the Corporate Residency MBA program are “blenders”. Do you have a passion for what you studied in your undergraduate program and want to build on the strength of that degree? The Corporate Residency MBA can help you leverage the skills you already have and provide you with a new set of business and leadership skills to launch your career in your chosen field.
Here are the requirements all applicants must meet before they would be considered for our program, and I have included them below for your reference.
• A four-year bachelor’s degree recognized by Dalhousie supported by official transcripts from all colleges/universities previously attended
• A Grade Point Average of B (or 3.0, 73%) or better in the final two years (60 credits)
• Please note: our program will not require applicants for June 2022 to submit a GMAT score.
• For candidates who have a degree from a non-English-language university, whose native tongue is not English: Minimum IELTS overall score of 7.5; TOEFL score of 102 (internet-based). The language competency test may be waived if the applicant has completed a degree at a recognized university where the language of instruction is English in a country where English is one of the national languages.
• Two academic letters of reference
• Current résumé
• A letter of intent
• Letter of Financial Guarantee (International students only)
Once the components noted above have been submitted, and our admissions committee has reviewed the file, candidates will be contacted for the interview, which is the second phase of the admissions process. You can find more detail regarding these requirements on the admissions page of our website.
At present, we only have a June intake. Application deadlines for June 2022 are as follows:
