The Group

 The discipline of Marketing shares one administrative group with the disciplines of Strategy and Health Service Management (under the Strategic Market Leadership and Health Services Management Area in the school). Interdisciplinary research leading to publications in top tier journals is highly encouraged. In the last few years the area faculty has published in journals such as Marketing Science, Strategic Management Journal, Academy of Management Journal, Organization Science, Journal of Product Innovation Management, Journal of Law and Economics and others. The Area faculty’s research have been generously funded from Canadian government research grants such as SSHRC, CHIR, provincial sources such as ORDCF as well as by several private businesses. The university also provides generous funds for research related activities. The school is in the process of developing professionally oriented executive development programs which may provide opportunities to teach in such programs as well.
