Registration Information

Below, we have outlined course registration recommendations for both the current BMgt program and the upcoming BCom program. Please ensure you plan your registration based on your intended program.

Bachelor of Commerce (BCom)

It is recommended that Year 1 students planning to transfer to the BCom program review the course planning recommendations below in conjunction with the BCom Course Planning Worksheet to aid in course planning for the 2025-26 Winter session. These resources can be used until the Academic Progress Report (APR) becomes available in Workday.

The recommendations below are broken down by term, taking important prerequisite and corequisite requirements into account.

*For MGMT_O 230 the Faculty has waived the PSYO_O 111 and second-year standing prerequisite requirement. All other prerequisite and corequisite requirements will be enforced.

Bachelor of Management (BMgt)

BMgt students are encouraged to check that they are meeting prerequisite and corequisite requirements for their courses as soon as possible. The following 8 core courses are required for the BMgt degree, and we recommend that you complete them in the first year of your program. Many of these core courses, either alone or in combination, are prerequisites for 200-level MGMT_O courses and are important for smooth progression through the BMgt degree:

Elective Courses

When selecting elective courses to complement a program of study, the following list of recommended lower-level electives may be considered. These courses are optional, and students may choose to take any, none, or all of them:

• ANTH-O 100 – Introduction to Cultural Anthropology
• CULT-O 100 – Media and Popular Culture in Global Context
• ENGL_O 1xx – any additional first-year English course
• PHIL_O 120 – Introduction to Logic and Critical Thinking
• SOCI_O 111 – Introduction to Sociology I

Students considering a minor are recommended to begin taking their required courses in Year 1.

Bachelor of Commerce (BCom)

It is recommended that students entering Year 2 who are planning to transfer to the BCom program review the course planning recommendations below while planning their 2025-26 Winter Session registration. These recommendations can be used in conjunction with the BCom Course Planning Worksheet to aid in course planning until the Academic Progress Report (APR) becomes available in Workday.

The recommendations below are broken down by term, taking important prerequisite and corequisite requirements into account.

* For Year 2 BMgt students who submit the BCom Expression of Interest form by June 20, the Faculty will grant a PSYO_O 111 prerequisite waiver for both MGMT_O 220 and MGMT_O 230 and will waive the third-year standing requirement for MGMT_O 411 by July 2. All other prerequisite and corequisite requirements will be enforced.

Bachelor of Management (BMgt)

BMgt degree students are encouraged to check that they are meeting prerequisite and corequisite requirements for their courses as soon as possible.  For second-year electives and course planning suggestions see the “Year 2” tab on our BMGT Course Planning webpage. The following seven 200-level courses are required for your degree, and we recommend that you complete them in the second year of your program.

*Year 2 BMgt students who have successfully completed MGMT_O 100, MGMT_O 110, and 3 credits of ENGL_O will receive a prerequisite waiver allowing them to register for COMM_O 398 without meeting the third-year standing requirement. 

BMgt degree students who have not already completed all BMgt Year 1 core courses, are strongly encouraged to prioritize these. Year 1 core courses, alone or in combination, make up the prerequisites for 200-level core courses.

The BMgt degree has space for 27 credits (typically 9 courses) of elective coursework outside of MGMT_O. We strongly encourage students pursuing the BMgt degree to use Term 1 and Term 2 to complete some of those electives. Non-MGMT_O elective credits can be satisfied with 100-, 200-, 300- and 400-level courses and must be from outside of MGMT_O.

Year 2 Registration Information Session

The Faculty of Management will host a virtual Registration Information Session for BMgt students interested in transferring to the BCom entering Year 2 on Monday, June 23^rd 2025 at 6:00 pm PT. Information is specific to students entering Year 2 interested in transferring to the BCom program.

These recommendations can be used in conjunction with the BCom Course Planning Worksheet to aid in course planning until the Academic Progress Report (APR) becomes available in Workday.

The recommendations below are broken down by term, taking important prerequisite and corequisite requirements into account.

*COMM_O 394 can be taken in place of MGMT_O 380; credit will not be granted for both.  For Year 3 BMgt students who submit the BCom Expression of Interest form by June 20, the Faculty will grant an ECON_O 295 prerequisite waiver for COMM_O 394 by July 2. All other prerequisite and corequisite requirements will be enforced.

*Year 3 BMgt students who have successfully completed MGMT_O 230 will receive a prerequisite waiver allowing them to register for MGMT_O 481.

Please note: There may be courses offered in only one term. Be aware of this as you plan your course schedule. If you have not already completed all of the 200-level MGMT courses, it is highly recommended that you prioritize these when planning your courses.

The BMgt degree has space for 27 credits (typically 9 courses) of elective coursework outside of MGMT_O. We strongly encourage students pursuing the BMgt degree to use Term 1 and Term 2 to complete some of those electives. 9 credits of the upper-level elective requirements may be satisfied with a combination of non-MGMT and MGMT courses at the 300- or 400-level. For BMgt degree-specific elective and course planning suggestions see the “Year 3 & 4” tab on our webpage.

Accounting in BMGT

Students in the BMGT CPA track should take MGMT_O 300, MGMT_O 304, and MGMT_O 329A. Upper-level accounting courses have prerequisites, so plan accordingly. These courses meet the admission requirements for the Chartered Professional Accountant Professional Education Program (CPA PEP) for the BMGT degree. For more details, visit the BMGT course planning page and consult an Academic and Career Advisor.

Year 3 Registration Information Session

The Faculty of Management will host a virtual Registration Information Session for BMgt students interested in transferring to the BCom entering Year 3 on Tuesday, June 17^th 2025, at 6:00 pm PT. Information is specific to students entering Year 3 interested in transferring to the BCom program.

Please register here and a meeting invitation will be sent ahead of the event. The session will be recorded and available on the BCOM webpage for any students unable to attend.

While all current Bachelor of Management (BMgt) students are eligible to apply to transfer to the BCom program, we strongly encourage students who plan to graduate by May 2026 to continue in the BMgt program. The earliest possible graduation date for the BCom program is May 2027.

We understand that some of you may be considering transferring to the BCom degree, especially if you do not plan to graduate until May 2027. It is important to note that transferring to the BCom program will likely extend your time at university and incur additional costs. Students interested in transferring are strongly encouraged to meet with an Academic and Career Advisor or the Faculty of Management.

Fourth-Year BMgt Course Planning

You are encouraged to check that you are meeting prerequisite and corequisite requirements for your courses as soon as possible. Course requirements will be enforced. We are offering some upper-level elective courses that may be new to you in the 2025-26 Winter Session, including:

The BMGT degree requires a minimum of 120 credits with specific program requirements, including 60% or higher in the coursework being used to satisfy your BMGT English requirement. We encourage students to review the BMGT program specific requirements in the Academic Calendar ahead of registration.

MGMT_O 490 Capstone is the only required 400-level MGMT course, offered in both Term 1 and Term 2. Students must complete a minimum of 18 credits of upper-level (300- and 400-level) MGMT electives. Additionally, 9 more credits can be fulfilled with either MGMT or non-MGMT electives at the 300- or 400-level. For specific fourth-year electives and course planning, visit the “Year 3&4” tab on our webpage.

It’s important to note anything above 15 credits per term is considered a very heavy course load. If you are considering registering in more than 15 credits, we strongly recommend speaking with an Academic and Career Advisor.
