Optional finance specialization
Want to bolster your financial expertise? While the general Haskayne EMBA stream will improve your financial acumen, this distinct specialization will dive into modern finance theories and methodologies to tackle complex business problems.
To qualify for the finance specialization, you will need to complete two finance courses as part of the core curriculum and three additional finance courses as electives.
Even though I already had 10 years of finance experience, I had gained my knowledge on the job. The Haskayne Executive MBA’s finance specialization amplified what I already knew with modern financial theories, practices and tools.

My executive coach was pivotal in helping me achieve the career I have today. She encouraged me to set tangible goals and enabled me to develop personally and professionally. This was one of my favourite aspects of the Haskayne EMBA and I love that I still have a great relationship with my coach.
