Overview

Bachelor of Arts in Finance and Economics

By combining both the finance and economics programs, students earn a holistic degree, which emphasizes the financial analysis and management side of economics and business administration, and therefore equips students with advanced skills in financial analysis, management, and forecasting skills.

Algoma University’s four-year Bachelor of Arts in Finance and Economics is a unique program, different from other university programs found across the province. 

The faculty is committed to a hands-on learning experience where students are able to establish a personal relationship with their professors. This fosters a very intimate and interactive learning environment.

This program concentrates on theory, applications, and explorations in current and policy-related issues at the regional, national, and international levels

Students will study the roles of government, business, and financial institutions, as well as individuals as they interact to determine the distribution of a country’s total range of goods and services. 

Courses cover a wide array of topic areas, including environmental economic policies, microeconomics, urban economics, international trade, public finance, international finance, and elementary statistical methods for economists, among others.

Upon graduation, students will have a solid foundational working knowledge of various economic and financial terms, concepts, and principles

Students will know how to solve complex problems and distinguish between correct and incorrect applications of economic concepts

They will be able to review, present, and interpret quantitative and qualitative information and will thoroughly understand the limits that exist within the realm of finance and economics.
