Student review [#58761] for Business and Marketing
at Concordia University

Arriving at my final year while pursuing my Undergraduate degree in Marketing here at Concordia University, I think I can confidently say that the JMSB Faculty offers numerous opportunities for career development ranging from the diverse and ever growing student associations to the assistance provided by the wonderful Career Management Services to help students secure internship. Concordia also offers a CO-OP Program, allowing students to alternate between their studies and work term to gain more hands-on work experience.

In terms of education, or at least from my experience in the Marketing program, Concordia University are equipped with professors who are clearly experienced within the marketing fields. They not only brings theory to the table, but also shares about their personal experiences and help direct students toward opportunities to help realize their potential.

As for the community, Concordia University are rich with student associations which may relate to your interests, allowing you to take part in their workshops and events. But if you can’t find any student associations that are geared towards what you may be looking for then you also have the option of starting on yourself!

One of the major thing I notice about Concordia University compared to the other universities located here in Montreal like McGill or UQAM is that competition tends to be RELATIVELY less intense. If you thrive in those environment then Concordia University may not be the most suitable place for you. However, if you like the learning environment where you can work to improve yourself at your own pace, then Concordia University will be able to fulfill your needs. That is not to say there isn’t any competition at all, there just isn’t as much social pressure.
