Master of Global Business and Economy

​The Master of Global Business and Economy (MGBE) is a two-year, course-based graduate program designed to develop the essential skills needed to thrive in today’s interconnected global economy. Through a curriculum that blends hands-on data analysis with practical business and economic coursework, students gain strong critical thinking, communication, and analytical abilities. This unique program, offered exclusively by Algoma University—the first in Canada to launch such a degree—integrates the disciplines of business and economics with a focus on practical application, ensuring that graduates are prepared to address real-world challenges rather than just theoretical concepts.

The MGBE opens the door to a wide range of career paths across different sectors. In the private sector, graduates may work in roles such as business consultants, economic analysts, management advisors, or in fields like international trade and logistics. In the public sector, opportunities include positions such as policy analysts, researchers, and project managers. Graduates can also contribute to the non-profit sphere in areas like international development and sustainability consulting, applying their expertise to drive meaningful global impact.
