Masters of Management Analytics Courses
Requests Deadline: September 1, 2022 to the Registrar’s Office.
Students must request permission and receive approval as per the process outlined below.
A limited number of spaces are open in the Masters of Management Analytics (MMA) courses listed below. Course descriptions are available on the main Rotman site.
Important Notes
- Each course in the Fall term will use at least one of the four languages (SQL, SAS, R, Python), sometimes two of these.
- Those students contemplating a Fall course must demonstrate adequate skills in the relevant language(s)—the ones used in each course should be clear from the course description. Students who are unsure whether they meet the requirements, should contact the course instructor(s) to clarify.
- Students who have a good coding background (in any language) should be able to get adequate proficiency in the languages used in the program by taking MMA bootcamps in the relevant languages.
- Students without strong coding experience will likely not be allowed to take MMA courses—taking MMA bootcamps will not be enough. The coding experience can come from prior course work, job, on-line courses, etc.
- MMA courses will count as an elective course credit. Students may also take these courses for extra credit. The maximum number of MMA courses any non-MMA student can take is two.
- A maximum of five MBA students can be enrolled in a given MMA course.
- Ensure a conflict-free course schedule. Note that MMA and MBA courses cannot conflict.
- Spring courses are not open to MBA students.
Request Process
Please submit the following to the Registrar’s Office by September 1, 2022:
- School of Graduate Studies Course Add/Drop Form (PDF) ranking a maximum of three MMA courses. Students may only be approved for a maximum of two MMA courses. Students must also indicate MBA courses to be dropped should MMA courses be approved.
- The School of Graduate Studies Course Add/Drop Form (PDF) must include a physical signature (i.e. no typed, print, computer fonts, or computer signatures)
- Transcript or statement addressing their background in coding. Students must have coding knowledge (some Python, some R—depending on the course). Those with weak skills may consider attending the MMA bootcamps.
- Incomplete requests will not be reviewed.
The Registrar’s Office will forward the packages for review as appropriate.
MBA students may be able to attend the MMA bootcamp subject to MMA Academic Director’s recommendation.
Students will be notified by early September.

Rotman PhD Courses
- MBA students may, with the permission of the instructor, take a doctoral-level course through the Rotman PhD Program. Some courses may be better suited to the academic needs and abilities of MBA students than others; ultimately, the instructor will assess an applicant’s candidacy, with further consideration of space availability.
- Anyone wishing to complete a Rotman PhD course must complete the School of Graduate Studies Course Add/Drop Form (PDF) and, together with a course outline and brief rationale for taking the course, submit these to the Registrar’s Office. Forms must be submitted by the deadline to add a course.
- A comprehensive list of PhD course offerings will be available in mid-July.
Other University of Toronto Graduate Departments
Many MBA students take graduate courses at other graduate departments, mainly Economics, Information, Industrial Relations, and Law (senior level undergraduate courses only). Students are advised to contact the department or faculty of interest regarding course offerings. Visit the School of Graduate Studies (SGS) for details and contact information for each graduate department at U of T.
The lists below represent only a sample of the courses available to students and those that the departments have asked Rotman to advertise.
Courses are reviewed by the appropriate Academic Director, on the basis of the following:
- Credit value (must be three credit hours / 0.5 FCE each)
- Appropriate level (graduate level courses, with the exception of senior level undergraduate courses in the Faculty of Law, University of Toronto)
- Suitability (fit with a student’s goals for the MBA program)
- Content (ensuring no duplication of coursework relative to MBA courses taken/to be taken)
To take a course at another department/Faculty at the University of Toronto, students must:
- Complete the School of Graduate Studies Course Add/Drop Form (PDF)
- Submit a course outline
- Submit a brief rationale for taking the course to the Registrar’s Office (RO).
- Ensure the host Department will approve the request by contacting the department well in advance. Ask whether they accept “out of faculty” requests, if there is space available in the course that you are interested in, and if there are any deadlines to enroll in the course.
Incomplete requests will not be considered. Enrolment is subject to Academic Director’s approval.
Important:
- Rotman grade submission deadlines must be met, regardless of the deadlines of the other department(s) involved.
- It is the student’s responsibility to know, and adhere to, the Add/Drop deadlines, accommodations policy, etc. of the host department.

Students work with faculty within and across disciplinary boundaries and with distinguished guests from the field to create innovative outcomes, from policy papers to potential startups. Students are exposed to the existing situation through in-depth lectures and workshops from faculty and expert guests. Teams are tasked to create viable business models for new paradigms that will encourage creators/performers/supporters, respect radicalizing technologies and intellectual property contexts, identify new markets and partnerships, and establish viable and sustainable distribution models.

Ontario Visiting Graduate Student Exchange Program
Students wishing to take a course at another university in Ontario must:
- Discuss their plans with their Assistant/Associate Director for their respective MBA program.
- Ensure the Department at the host University will approve their request by contacting the Department well in advance—two months before course start is recommended—to confirm session offering and likelihood of request being approved.
- Complete a School of Graduate Studies Ontario Visiting Graduate Student Form (PDF) and submit a course outline as well as a brief rationale for taking the course to the Registrar’s Office (RO).
Note:
- Approval is normally given only if there is no equivalent course being offered at Rotman or other department at the University of Toronto during the academic year following the request.
- Note that Ontario Visiting Graduate Student (OGVS) courses can only be taken for credit (i.e. OVGS courses cannot be designated as Extra credit).
- A maximum of two courses may be taken under this program. If a student wishes to take more than the two courses allowed at a university in Ontario, they must secure approval for the particular course from the Director, Academic Services, Masters Programs and obtain a letter of permission to take the course(s).
- Please do not contact Rotman instructors or Academic Instructors as the Registrar’s Office secures all approvals.
Graduate Exchange Agreement
This agreement is between the University of Toronto and McGill University, Université de Montréal, and University of British Columbia. Each university, whenever feasible, will allow a graduate student in good standing from one university to register as an exchange graduate student at the other university without paying fees at the institution being visited, except for student activity fees. Courses taken will be credited at the home institution and for Rotman School students, may amount to a maximum of five courses (equivalent to 2.5 FCEs).
Students wishing to take a course at one of these universities must:
- Discuss their plans with their Associate Director for the respective MBA program.
- Ensure the department at the host university will approve their request by contacting the Department well in advance—three months before course start is recommended—to confirm session offering and likelihood of request being approved.
- Complete a School of Graduate Studies Graduate Exchange Agreement Form (PDF) and submit a course outline as well as a brief rationale for taking the course to the Registrar’s Office (RO).
