Beedie School of Business at Simon Fraser University

Since the creation of Canada's first Executive MBA in 1968 and Simon Fraser University’s business faculty in 1982, the Beedie School of Business has championed lifelong learning, productive change, and the need to be innovative as we deliver research and teaching that creates impact. 2022 marks the 40th anniversary of the creation of the Beedie School of Business. We are born of SFU’s radical roots and have been “redefining radical” throughout our 40-year history. To us, that means boldly stepping up, challenging convention, and changing course to lead in a new direction. This ethos has made us a school of firsts: the 1st in Canada to offer an Executive MBA; The 1st in Canada to offer a Management of Technology MBA; the 1st and only university in North America to offer an Indigenous Business Leadership Executive MBA; and the distinction of being in the 1% of business schools with both an AACSB and EMFD accreditation. With undergraduate, graduate and PhD programs that are supported by extensive partnerships with public, private and non-profit organizations, our goal is to produce broadly educated, enterprising and socially responsible professionals capable of making lasting contributions to their communities. The Beedie School of Business operates on all three SFU campuses, with: • 3,800+ undergraduate (BBA) students in Burnaby and Surrey • 700+ MBA and graduate students at the Segal Graduate School of Business and at the Surrey Campus • Non-credit programs at the director, executive and management-levels • A thriving PhD program
