EXPERIENCE & EXPERTISE

UofT is consistently rated among the world’s best

universities, the Rotman School of Management

is among the top international business schools,

and departments such as Economics are globally

recognized centres of excellence. What’s at the

heart of this impressive reputation? In a word—our

faculty. Your teachers at Rotman Commerce are

renowned and respected thinkers, business leaders,

and researchers. In your classes, you will benefit

from their experience and insight—learning important

lessons that will help guide your steps as you begin

to forge your own unique career path.

THE ELEMENTSOF POSSIBLE

When you choose Rotman Commerce,

you’re choosing more than just a business

program. You’re opting for an all-round

experience that will give you the tools

you need to build your road to success.

A WORLD OF CHOICE

We believe that your business knowledge can take you

much further when coupled with an understanding of

the world beyond the boardroom. You can choose to

specialize in accounting, finance and economics, or

management, each of which will give you a strong

base in the core areas of business (accounting, business

economics, finance, marketing, organizational behaviour,

strategy, and operations). You will also pursue advanced

study in the liberal arts and sciences—subjects such as

psychology, political science, English, computer science,

or just about anything else you have an interest in. And

with over 2,000 Arts and Science courses to select

from, your education will be as well-rounded as your

inclinations and passions.

“ Rotman Commerce offers more

choice than any of the other

programs I considered. With

hundreds of student activities

happening on campus every

year, an amazing number of

ways to gain leadership

experience, and thousands of

courses to choose from, I’ve

been able to build an education

that reflects who I am and what

I care about.”

CONNECTIONS & COMMUNITY

A North American business hub, the downtown core

of a vibrant metropolitan city, a historic campus just

minutes from Canada’s financial epicentre—it all comes

together here at Rotman Commerce. As a member of

our diverse and close-knit student body, you’ll have

countless opportunities to connect with the world’s

best-known companies, our extensive network of

successful alumni, and a wide range of professionals

from Toronto’s thriving business community, not to

mention a community of like-minded students who

over the course of your studies and beyond.

ropes and getting to know others like you can make

life a whole lot easier. Led by senior Rotman Commerce

students, First-Year Learning Communities (FLCs)

offer friendly guidance on everything from time

management to mastering exams. FLCs help you

connect with classmates in social activities and

small group settings, and develop academic skills

while getting to know the ins and outs of life at UofT.

EXPERIENCEWHAT IS POSSIBLE

CONFERENCES & COMPETITIONS

Prepare to shine. Our students take part in conferences

and competitions on campus, across North America,

and around the world. Showcased themes cover the

spectrum of business topics, which help you to gain

practical knowledge in your areas of interest.

SHARPEN YOUR LEADERSHIP SKILLS

Learn to lead. Our student life and career centre teams

offer countless opportunities for you to complement

your core studies with hands-on exploration of different

leadership models and expert-led activities to help

you develop vital professional skills, from making

presentations to building financial models.
