The KIM program will allow students to develop their critical and creative thinking through various types of learning and research activities, and will allow them to develop lifelong learning capabilities.
The KIM International Ph.D. program is offered in English. Students are expected to complete the program over a period of 3 years (48 credits). During the first year, students will follow all the core seminars that will prepare them to conduct new research in the various Knowledge Management and Innovation Management fields. These seminars are offered during the weekend to accommodate the schedule of working professionals. A scheduling of classes is made available to the students at the beginning of each semester so they can appropriately plan and organize themselves.
Blended learning techniques will be used to deliver these seminars (classroom, online, video conferencing, retreats and other interactive and pioneering learning approaches). After completing their qualifying exam, students will have to prepare their proposal defense which, when passed, will allow them to start conducting their research for their dissertation work.
