Program Details
During Ivey’s HBA1, students have the opportunity to apply for conditional acceptance to the program. The Ivey MSc is a direct-entry program requiring no previous full-time work experience. It is a transformational experience for ambitious students who want to build on their undergraduate success, hone their skill set, develop their leadership abilities, and accelerate their learning in a specialized master’s degree.
HBA students have the opportunity to complete a portion of their MSc while finishing their HBA2. Doing so drastically reduces both the time and cost associated with achieving this advanced degree.
