Testimonial
"The Graduate program has a very good balance of theory and practice. We studied real-world cases and this gave us insight into International Marketing, International Business Strategy, and International Finance. On my CV and in my job interviews I refer to a project we completed during the program and the lessons I learned about it, and people were always very interested about it. I'm currently working in Business and Economic Development in Montreal, and the McGill program gave me the tools I needed."
