The IAL is designed to give students industry knowledge, marketable skills, interpersonal and collaborative abilities and build industry networks to launch their careers and excel in the field of advanced analytics.
IAL Placement Assignment: Specific placements will be determined by the MSc Faculty, MSc Program Services Office and will be based on the input of participating companies. Projects and companies are subject to change each year. While students may indicate preferences for a certain company and project, students are not guaranteed their preferences as this depends on the business needs and individual assessment of Ivey’s IAL partners.

In this option, you will spend Terms 4 plus an additional term 5 studying at NHH.
CEMS Exchange Term Option
Ivey students originate from a wide range of countries, but it is the CEMS partner school network that really exposes you to the world of international business. As a CEMS student, you are required to spend a minimum of one term at a CEMS partner school.
Ivey MSc Graduate Diploma in Business and Sustainability
The Ivey MSc Graduate Diploma in Business and Sustainability responds to seismic changes currently underway that are rapidly transforming the importance of sustainability for business. Sustainability and social responsibility now need to be at the core of an organization’s strategy and value creation model, and fully integrated across all elements of the organization and its supply chain. These changes fundamentally expand the knowledge and skills required for future leaders to succeed. The diploma focuses not only on building technical skills linked to the market demand, but also encouraging the development of broader perspectives of sustainability as a holistic systems agenda incorporating environmental, social, and economic dimensions.
