Schulich School Celebrates Its 50th Anniversary with a Year of Events

At the end of October, York University’s Schulich School of Business celebrated its 50th anniversary. For fifty years, Schulich has been a pioneer in new knowledge and has helped shape global management education. And for their half-century anniversary, the school’s new tagline is Business Education Transformed. Throughout the coming year, the school will host a variety of anniversary events and special projects to commemorate this special occasion.

Several events have already taken place in preparation for their anniversary season including the hosting of alumni galas in Hong Kong and Beijing. The Schulich school has also held student-led conferences featuring alumni from all five decades, as well as more than 15 other special anniversary-theme events. However, there are still many more events to come over the next 12 months.
