Rotman School of Management, Business school at St. George Campus, Toronto, Canada
Rotman School of Management is a business school on St. George Campus in Toronto, occupying three connected buildings that combine Victorian and contemporary architectural elements. The complex sits in the downtown university district, joining historic facades with modern extensions that house lecture halls, seminar rooms and student work areas.
The institution opened in 1950 as the Institute of Business Administration, initially offering courses in business management. Following a donation from Joseph L. Rotman in 1997, it was renamed, leading to an expansion of programs and facilities.
The name honors Joseph L. Rotman, whose donation shaped the development of the institution and enabled its international focus. Students often work in mixed groups from different countries, influencing daily life on campus through different perspectives and working methods.
Access to the buildings is through street-level entrances, with some areas open to visitors during business hours. The facilities are centrally located in the university district and easy to reach on foot or by public transport.
The Creative Destruction Lab inside the building serves as an incubator for technology companies, connecting founders with investors and business partners. This lab targets early-stage startups and regularly hosts meetings with mentors who provide advice on product development and funding.
