Students in the BCom program complete this course in their second or third year at McGill. Students come from diverse backgrounds with a wide variety of concentrations including Human Resources, Organizational Behavior, Business Analytics, Marketing, Operations Management, Entrepreneurship, Finance, Strategic Management and Sustainability. Students outside of the BCom program or exchange students may also take this course as an elective, adding to the diversity of our class. Some students have completed internships in human resources and/or in other management fields.   This is a great opportunity to work with leaders of tomorrow, foster a relationship with McGill, as well as start a talent pipeline for your organization. You may get inspiration and some fresh ideas from the students.

Student groups employ statistical methods to analyze quantitative and qualitative financial data, including bank communications, financial news, and bankruptcy reports. Students then draw conclusions about real-world financial implications, such as factors that increase financial risk and how news media might impact market dynamics.

Students will de-construct a complex business situation, identify the key issues and problems facing the organization in question, propose alternative courses of action, recognize the trade-offs involved in these alternatives, and make concrete recommendations backed by solid reasoning. Companies will have the chance to work and meet with tomorrow's leaders at a prestigious university institution. They may also obtain strategic advice and research analyses from eager young adults at no cost.
