Are you currently looking to manage risk, information and change within your organization?
A Master of Information Management (MIM), the new degree from the School of Information Management at Dalhousie, created for mid-career professionals could be the degree for you.
In this information session Dr. Bertrum MacDonald will provide an overview of the MIM program focusing on the unique aspects of this degree. He will highlight the curriculum, the blended learning environment (12-week online courses plus 2- 3 day face-to-face intensive sessions), and discuss how our students are achieving a work/school/life balance. The first cohort of students just received their MIM degree this fall. Dr. MacDonald taught them their first and last course, and will highlight some of the learning tools he created, including the capstone course where students completed research projects and presented their findings in a poster session. He will also be available to answer your questions.
