Management and Organization Studies

Our mission is to create and disseminate knowledge that furthers
social and human sustainability. We focus in particular on the
relationship between organizations and the health and well-being of
individuals, organizations, families, communities and societies. This
covers diverse territory, including applied ethics, corporate social
responsibility, employment relations, human resource management,
organizational behaviour, organization development and organization
theory.
The Management and Organization Studies group is committed
to both undergraduate and graduate business education. Through the
concentration in Human Resource Management, the area prepares
undergraduate students for a career in HRM and develops the leadership
and teamwork skills of undergraduate students in other business
specialties. The group also plays a major role in SFU Beedie's
Executive MBA Program, provides courses in all our other MBA programs
and is very active in the Ph.D. program. Several MOS faculty provide
their consulting expertise to companies in Canada and internationally,
developing cooperative, mutually beneficial projects with industry,
government and non-profit organizations.
