Lakehead University's Master of Business Administration (MBA) is a versatile program that equips students with essential skills for diverse management careers. We currently provide two MBA pathways. The standard MBA is an intensive 12-month (3 terms, full-time) program that builds foundational management competencies. Alternatively, the MBA with Advanced Studies in Management extends to 16 months (4 terms, full-time), allowing students to augment core MBA curriculum with focused specialization courses.
Both program variations foster holistic business understanding and environmental awareness while strengthening analytical thinking, decision-making capabilities, and communication proficiency. Participants cultivate ethical business perspectives through dynamic lectures, interactive discussions, modern case analyses, and hands-on learning initiatives.
