SCHULICH: Master of Marketing (MMKG) Review?

Thank you so much for your response!

I was wondering, isn't this program too focused on online marketing and B2C marketing overall?

Will this content help if I were to apply to a tech company (with a predominantly B2B model)?

It's difficult to state, but I can tell you the program is much more focused than an MBA. It's concentrated on Digital Marketing, and it makes sense, internet is dominating. I think, this is a perfect program if you want to work for tech, it will give you concentrated specialization skills and not generalized Marketing knowledge consisting of a few courses that you would get from an MBA. It's a professional degree, which makes it an absolute gem. I feel that's what employers want these days, especially in tech, they want actual skills, whether its in marketing, coding, development etc.
In addition, based on my research, the program prepares students for managerial role.

MBA is also a Professional degree, but it's more general management.

I hope I was of help.

One thing to consider, specialized masters programs including MMKG require a bit higher GPA for admissions in comparison to Schulich MBA. I assume its because MBA is more holistic approach, whereas specialized masters don't require work experience, therefore academic potential is an important factor.

Thank you so much for your responses.

I understand that MSc programs need a higher academic potential.

I was just wondering if this is the right program for me, given that I want to work in more of a strategy related role and not an advertising or a sales role.

Btw, have your received your offer?
