Rotman School of Management is located on the historic St. George campus in downtown Toronto, a quick walk to the financial district.

The Rotman School has redesigned management education to enable graduates to develop creative business solutions in a world filled with uncertainty and risk. Rotman teaches all the fundamentals of management: marketing; strategy; finance; accounting, and organizational behaviour. The curriculum takes one well beyond the various 'silos' of business, teaching how to step back and see the 'big picture', and when necessary, to build new models to solve modern business problems that don't fall into neat categories.Modern leadership demands the flexibility and creativity of Integrative Thinking.

The internationally rated Rotman MBA program has the distinct advantage of being located in the heart of downtown Toronto. The Rotman School takes full advantage of its prime location to draw on a rich pool of business and political leaders as teachers, mentors, guest speakers and hosts of special events. Group projects in the MBA program frequently involve local businesses, and a wide variety of academic and research partnerships exist between Rotman and corporate Canada.
