Your global journey starts here
Our student body is internationally diverse. Our faculty is too. This rich mosaic of cultures brings fresh perspectives. From the experiences you’ll have, to the people you’ll learn from, a UBC Sauder education is a global education.
Global Network for Advanced Management
UBC Sauder is the only Canadian school in the Global Network for Advanced Management (GNAM), a prestigious collaboration of 32 graduate schools around the world. While students are not guaranteed a spot in GNAM, those who participate will travel to international universities, tour local businesses and meet with local business experts. Plus, students can take online courses offered by schools in the network.
UBC PMBA Global Learning
Opportunities available through our global network:
Summer Study Abroad
UBC PMBA students are eligible to participate in an optional Summer Study Abroad program during the summer of their second year in the program. Summer Study Abroad programs take place at some of the world’s top business schools, and offer invaluable opportunities to both study business from an international perspective and experience life in a different culture firsthand. Students form life-long friendships, develop advantageous business networks and have the chance to explore new countries. The benefits of participating in a summer study abroad program endure long after graduation.
