Honours Bachelor of Commerce - Marketing

Program Description

Available intakes: January & September

We are definitely not Business As Usual. Over the past four decades, our Faculty of Business Administration has produced creative business leaders through mentorship, innovative programming, challenging consulting opportunities and participation in national and international business competitions.

Our Thunder Bay campus of the Faculty of Business Administration has joined the ranks of elite business schools by earning our Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB) certification. Fewer than five percent of business programs worldwide have been accredited with the AACSB certification. This globally-recognized hallmark of excellence guarantees you will experience a challenging and relevant curriculum delivered by the most highly-qualified faculty.  

In our program, focus is placed on decision-making and problem-solving in a business context. You will experience traditional lectures, student seminars, formal presentations, group discussions and case study work. We also emphasize group projects to assist your professional and interpersonal development.

NOTE:  Almost all Lakehead University programs are designed with courses that require successful completion of a a Fall session prerequisite course. As a result, students who choose to begin their academic studies in the Winter session will find the course selection extremely limited and will be restricted to attending on a part-time basis until the following Fall academic session.  Most study permits require that the applicant is a full-time student. Because of this, It is recommended that students apply for a September start.
