You really couldn't imagine a more stimulating learning environment. In every course I took, I was exposed to people from different cultures, with different ways of working, and different visions of the world and of business. Living in Montréal and studying at HEC Montréal has been nothing but amazing. Perhaps the best evidence of how much I really enjoyed my experience is the fact that I, after finishing the MBA, actually chose to stay here to live and work.
The vibrant French culture in a North American setting, together with a plethora of traditions brought by other immigrants create a really multicultural society, which naturally makes Montréal an extremely stimulating and unique setting for an international MBA. Add to this the opportunity at HEC Montréal to choose between courses in English, French, and sometimes even Spanish, and you are well prepared for an international career.
Working closely with students of every nationality has made me aware of the economic, political, social and cultural issues managers and organizations from other countries have to contend with. It's invaluable.
