“It’s exciting to launch our MBA in the Kanata North technology park,” said Luciara Nardon, Associate Dean of Professional Graduate Programs at the Sprott School of Business and Professor of International Business.

“We are proud to welcome this diverse and impressive group of professionals to the program. It’s fantastic to see their enthusiasm and engagement, and I look forward to teaching them in their first course, Cognitive Tools for Managers.”

Sprott MBA candidates are working professionals with at least five years of relevant work experience. The inaugural Kanata class is comprised of professionals from a wide range of career backgrounds, including engineering, cybersecurity, capital planning, finance, insurance, human resources management and public policy.

The Sprott MBA delivers an integrated management education that equips graduates with tools and knowledge to lead with purpose and solve complex management problems in today’s fast-changing business environment.

The program’s intensive format is intentionally designed to allow busy professionals to complete their MBA in 16 months, while continuing to work and balance life demands. Classes are delivered on Fridays and Saturdays of alternating weeks with breaks scheduled at convenient times for families. Sprott also delivers the MBA on Carleton University’s main campus and online.
