Hi All,
I am planning to go for GLOBAL BUSINESS MANAGEMENT from Humber College, and i would like to know whether it is a Post Graduate Diploma or a Certificate ...Please answer and how are the Job Opportunities for this Course and are we eligible fr 3 PGWP please reply asap.....
PLEASE ANSWER
I am in the same college but different course (the course that I wanted to study) and I have tonnes of friends here who are studying in GBM at Humber including my room mate.
To start with I would say GBM is not a bad course, it is like a blend of all the management subjects that are required for international business and transactions. But its not a specialization course and lately it has turned into a device which people use to come to Canada and get 3 year PGWP which leads to PR and of which employers are very well aware of.
The ratio of Desis (Indians+Pakistanis+Bangladeshis) to locals/any other national is around 9:1 in a class of 60. (or even less)
Professors for this particular course are strict as compared to others course. I have heard about students mocking profs during the class in their local languages although profs do neglect all that but it does reflect on their overall behavior towards Desis which any GBM student can tell you about. (I have not seen this happening in Marketing Mgmt or HRM).
My room mate is a 3rd Sem GBM student and one of his GBM senior friend got a decent job (with $40k annual pay) although his engineering background was the key factor that helped him get the Job (in addition to the Canadian Experience that he gathered over the time).
You can chat with Humber GBM students on this forum, nickmalik and khurana are two such members. I am not sure if they do come online anymore.
Don't run after the PR and Citizenship, go for the course you like as enfield suggested.
