The EMBA in Key Concepts
Two World-Class Universities
A joint program between McGill University (Desautels Faculty of Management) and HEC Montréal, the McGill-HEC Montréal EMBA is a bilingual MBA program designed for experienced executives and managers.
15-Month Format
This 15-month program allows participants to continue their professional careers while studying. Classes are held approximately once a month, from Thursday to Sunday.
Bilingual
Reflecting the reality of the Canadian business environment, the program is bilingual, conducted in both English and French.
Practice-Oriented and Leader-Focused
The EMBA is a practice-oriented program based on the “Managerial Mindsets” developed by renowned management theorist Henry Mintzberg.
More Than Just an MBA
The EMBA is not just a career milestone—it’s a journey of personal growth. Our mission is to help leaders evolve into the best versions of themselves. Rather than shaping “perfect” leaders who fit a single mold, we empower participants to harness their strengths, address their challenges, and deepen their understanding of who they are—as individuals and as leaders.
It’s more than an MBA; it’s an invaluable investment leaders make in themselves. Participants join a diverse cohort of peers, with leaders representing over 20 industries.
By the end of the program, graduates consistently emphasize two key outcomes: increased confidence in themselves and their leadership abilities, and a broader, more strategic perspective on their organizations and the business world.
