Telfer School of Management at the University of Ottawa

Telfer takes a results-oriented approach to the realization of a Better Canada. The research and data analysis we do generates the very same knowledge that we share with our students and with key constituencies in Canada and around the world. Telfer is driven by a passion for delivering positive societal outcomes in line with what we value: people, the planet, and profit. We measure our success in terms of how our actions align with macro, societal outcomes. We educate our students, through coursework and work experience to become better decision-makers. We share knowledge with current decision-makers to inform their policy choices, as well as illuminate the potential impacts of their options. While other business schools concentrate on building capital, at Telfer, we are devoted to building a better world. Our seasoned professors, through their research work, take on the major issues faced by today's leaders and managers, anticipating and devising solutions to tomorrow's challenges, particularly in our three strategic areas: business analytics and performance, health systems management, and innovation & entrepreneurship. Located in the heart of Ottawa, our school is the proud academic home of some 4,300 students, 200 faculty members, and over 31,000 alumni. Our accreditations from the three most demanding international organizations (AACSB, EQUIS & AMBA) underline that we are recognized as one of the world's top business schools.
