About

The Graduate Diploma in Business Administration offered by Simon Fraser University is a competitive credential that offers the rigour of MBA-level courses with more flexibility.

Overview

If you have an undergraduate degree in any discipline, at least two years of full-time professional work experience, and the motivation and self-discipline to learn business in an interactive online setting, the GDBA could be the best next step in your career.

It’s ideal for someone who wants to test business graduate level courses before fully committing to an MBA from Simon Fraser University, and/or who wants the flexibility of an Business Administration online program. 

Or, if you’ve already decided you want to study for an MBA, the GDBA could be the pathway you’re looking for.

It’s a collaborative learning space that provides everything you need to succeed as a graduate student, including 24/7 access to educational resources. You can take classes whenever works for you.
