Schulich Alumni Advocate for Diverse Tech Leaders
Schulich’s Tech MBA owes much of its success to our dedicated alumni community, including top tech leaders who actively shape the curriculum, take part on the Tech MBA Advisory Council, offer mentorship, speak in the classroom, support scholarships, and facilitate internships. Schulich’s influential alumni play a crucial role in advocating to further strengthen the program’s reputation and growth.
Schulich is thrilled to announce three newly established awards thanks to the support of our alumni’s involvement and leadership.
