The November issue of BCBusiness
claims that
UBC's Sauder MBA is "The
only Canadian
MBA with a mandatory
Global Immersion Experience" taking
students to diverse destinations.
-This claim is incorrect. In fact, the
Gustavson School of Business at the
University of Victoria has had a manda-
tory global immersion experience in
its program since the late 1990s. Last
year, our students travelled to China
and India, and this year are headed to
Colombia and Malaysia.
-International education is one of
the pillars of the Gustavson school,
and we are proud of our track record.
Fully three-quarters of our current-day
MBA class come from other countries,
and they receive a truly international
educational experience. In addition
to global immersion, they undergo in-
depth education, across several courses
in the curriculum, in the business and
social issues that arise in an intercul-
tural milieu.
-Gustavson has extensive partner-
ships with overseas universities, an
outstanding international exchange
program and, in addition to the
MBA,
a unique graduate degree devoted
to global management, the Master of
Global Business, or
MGB.

Thank you.

PUBLISHER'S NOTE: In our November
2016 issue, an advertising special feature on
executive education stated that the full-time
MBA program in the Robert H. Lee Graduate
School at the Sauder School of Business
at
UBC was the only Canadian MBA with a
mandatory global immersion experience. It is
not. BCBusiness apologizes for the error.
