2. Virtual
3. Intensive

The purpose of this page is to provide more information to students who are considering enrolment in the intensive delivery format.

The intensive version of BUS 800: Strategic Management will be taught primarily in a five-day in-class synchronous format, but will include asynchronous learning prior to your in-class studies. The schedule is as follows:

Asynchronous Distance Learning – May 1 to June 18, and June 24 to July 31

Intensive In-Class Delivery – June 19 to June 23, 9am-12pm and 1:30pm-4:30pm

Your instructor may require you to view some lecture or supplementary materials prior to class, and/or participate in other activities, outside of class time, e.g. on discussion boards. You are expected to read the assigned chapters and assigned readings before class. 

Classes will be a combination of elements. Lectures, which will be focused on knowledge and frameworks from the text and assigned readings, will clarify some of the more difficult theories and concepts. Workshops, consisting of exercises and discussions during the allotted in-class time, will provide individuals and groups with the opportunity to apply this knowledge to business cases and real-life examples. These exercises and activities are designed to reinforce what was learned in the lecture. 

Students may be asked to work individually or in groups.
