Welcome to the Melville School of Business at Kwantlen Polytechnic University!
Whether studying business or technology was an easy and obvious choice for you, or you are here out of curiosity, or on the advice of others, whatever brought you here, we welcome you!
The world you are preparing for is dynamic and disruptive. Employers and communities are asking for more than technical skills, they want people who can listen deeply, think critically, adapt quickly, and work across differences with respect and curiosity. At Melville, that is what we do, with programs that connect disciplines, integrate real work experience, and develop the judgement to use what you learn responsibly.
You are joining a school that is deliberately different. Here, you will learn business as a human enterprise, at its best when it creates more than it takes. You will find an engaging, hands-on learning environment where you gain new skills and knowledge, new experiences of the real world, and new perspectives on life and relationships. And our commitments to our communities, Indigenous engagement, and equity and inclusion are woven into how and what you learn, because it makes the learning richer and makes us all better.
Our values of courage, curiosity, humility, and responsibility guide this work, and you will see them reflected in the faculty and staff who teach and support you. They are talented, dedicated people, deeply connected to industry and community, and genuinely invested in your success.
We are grateful you have chosen to begin this chapter with us. What you learn here will shape how you contribute, lead, and imagine what comes next. When you leave us, we want you to step confidently into your future, seeing possibility, meeting challenges with resilience and creativity, and knowing you can make a difference.
Welcome to business at its best, ready for the real world. Welcome to Melville.
