Posted by on April 8th, 2013 · 2013, Business, Self funded, Short courses, UNSW Partner Institution

The two-week program will take place in Montreal, Canada, from July 8-19, 2013.

HEC Montréal’s Department of International Business offers a two-week Summer School Program with both an undergraduate and a graduate level. The program offers insightful teaching and practical experience in core areas for business students: innovation, sustainability, and the creative economy.

HEC Montréal, one of the most important multicultural business schools in Québec and Canada, invites students from business schools around the world to participate in cutting-edge academic programs at both the undergraduate and the graduate levels

Program

These two-week programs provide participants with a privileged opportunity to reflect on the essential concepts and the fundamental tools of knowledge creation and sharing, sustainable development values and drivers, and cultural and social innovation. Although the undergraduate and graduate programs cover the same themes, the pedagogical approach and content are adapted to suit the needs of students at both study levels.

Most of the academic materials and business cases used in the courses relate to business experience in the city of Montréal, a world-renowned know-how hub for the innovative multimedia, gaming, arts, circus, and cultural events sectors. Montréal is also a city in which projects involving sustainability and social awareness have a strong voice. 

The Summer School is made possible through the collaboration of four centres of expertise: GRIDD (Sustainability Research Group), CRISES (Social Economy Research Group), MOSAIC (Management of Creativity Center) and the Carmelle and Rémi Marcoux Chair in Arts Management
