Telfer School of Management

The Telfer School of Management is an incredible place that facilitates professional skill building, and personal development. Through my years here, I have worked with building staff, professors, administration, and students. I can confidently say that it is through Telfer, that I met my best friends, gained the most impact experiences, and was provided the most rewarding opportunities to engage the student community. The community of both students and faculty members work hard to constantly hold events that engage students and provide value to their career development. The building itself is well kept, and the best part of it are the communities that embed themselves within DMS.

I had an amazing experience in my four years at the Telfer School of Management! I've met some amazing people and learned valuable lessons about the business world, that I've applied every day. There are so many resources available free for all the students attending the school and I highly recommend taking advantage of them. These resources helped my learning experience and helped me find a career that I enjoy. Additionally, the professors love to see their students succeed. The profs go beyond teaching classes or expecting good marks; they will help you in your journey by writing references and pointing you in the right direction when looking for advise. It is clear that they care about their students by making sure the time they spend at school is worth it. I honestly don't believe I could have gotten a better experience from another University.

Loved my 4 years at Telfer! They have endless opportunities to get involved and advance your learning outside of classes. Amazing Co-op program that set me up for a career in my field right after graduation (even during the pandemic). Great teachers and students - Telfer feels like a family and I already miss it!

The overall experience at Telfer was nothing short of amazing! I changed as a person attending the school. While I can be an introvert in many scenarios - I found the opportunities I had at Telfer allowed me to push those boundaries and do things outside of my comfort zone. The clubs are a great way to get involved and to become part of the larger network of students that are making a difference for their fellow students. I was very involved Managers without Borders (now Telfer International) and it allowed me to meet international students from all over the world and have a larger appreciation for different cultures. Great school with many opportunities for all students.

The networking opportunities offered at Telfer are unparalleled. Not only is it close to everything, but the clubs events, conferences and out of class learning opportunities are amazing.I did my undergrad minor at Telfer and, 6 years later, I'm about to go back to do my MBA. (Telfer is one of only 2 schools in Canada to have the triple crown accreditation, the highest designation a Business/Management school can have.)The campus is extremely diverse and inclusive. Whether you are looking at this school to do an undergrad or graduate studies, or if you are considering Telfer for employment opportunities, you'll have a great time, especially if you take advantage of all the services, free events and conferences the School has to offer.

Although I am still currently pursuing my Marketing degree in the Co-operative Education Program, it is safe enough to say that my 4 years at Telfer so far have been amazing. Since involving myself with the clubs and the events that they have to offer, I have grown my network and made a lot of valuable connections through its endless networking opportunities.One of my favourite experiences so far is definitely ADM 2381 - Business Communication Skills. This class was very memorable for me as I not only got out of my shell through doing presentations, but I was also successful in the course even with such a big learning curve. I went from being completely scared of public speaking, to being opened to the idea that I could potentially work on this skill and be successful with it.I can’t wait to see where all these great experiences/opportunities will take me in the future!

Telfer marries strong academics with real-world experience leaving you a force to be reckoned with when you graduate! Personally, I had never felt like a number in the program. The professors are always open to having conversations and becoming mentors, if you show the interest! Telfer not only shaped me through academics, it gradually, but firmly continued to shape me personally. It teaches you resilience, perseverance, while providing you with all the support and motivation to be the best student you can be! It made me love learning! Being part of the Telfer alumni is a privilege and an honour that I will continue to represent throughout my career! I highly recommend Telfer! I miss it there!

During my undergrad, I completed two co-op terms with the marketing team at the Telfer School of Management.Throughout my placements, I learned all about digital marketing, what it takes to be a leader, and how to use my knowledge for good.The team supported me throughout my undergrad and continue to support me as a recent alumnus.I highly recommend new students to participate in the program—It will take your career to the next level!

My time at Telfer was nothing short of amazing. The classes offered really prepare you for the world after university. I was able to secure a job in the industry I wanted right out of university and that is a testament to the networking events held, the high standards, and overall experience I had while at Telfer. 100% would recommend Telfer to anyone looking into business school.

March 2023graduated from this amazing faculty. Great professors that taught me well. More and more going on every year. There are many events to engage current students and alumni.I like to stay in touch and attend various events.The next upcoming engagement is the CEO of the Year breakfast with Kyle Braatz (7:30 - 9:00.a.m.).
