Our programs

Stackable credentials

Build the career you want one step at a time.

Stack your business education with our flexible and online certificate in business administration and diploma in business administration. Courses in both programs count towards a bachelor of commerce (B.Comm.) degree.

With careful course planning and academic advising, these programs may be completed fully online.

Quality programs

Our program’s excellence has been marked by AACSB International accreditation since 2002. We’re also accredited by a number of reputable national organizations.

Business One

All students in our undergraduate degree programs complete a common first year called Business One, after which they must apply for entry into either the B.Comm. or the B.Comm.(Co-op.).

Certificate and diploma students don’t need to complete Business One.

Admission standards

Our undergraduate degrees, the B.Comm. and the B.Comm.(Co-op.) are selective and competitive.

Students who are ready to apply for entry into our B.Comm. or B.Comm.(Co-op.) programs must have an overall average of 65 per cent on the 30 credit hours (10 courses) in Business One, and a cumulative overall average of 60 per cent. A minimum of 15 credit hours must be completed at Memorial.

Students who are applying for the Certificate in Business Administration and Diploma in Business Administration must meet the general admission requirements for Memorial University.

Embedded professional development

To give our students a competitive edge, they complete a series of exciting non-credit, professional development seminars. Topics include: professionalism, job searches, career development and individual skill development. These seminars are offered in partnership with Gardiner Centre and noted on transcripts.

Focus areas

Students may focus their studies on areas of business in which they have an interest.

Academic advising

Academic advising guides students to select courses that develop a focus and provide pathways to professional designations.

Students in the certificate, diploma and B.Comm. programs may complete their programs fully online with careful course planning. We recommend meeting with academic advisers early in your program if you wish to complete your program online.
