The Algoma difference is rooted in more personal experiences. Being immersed in diverse world views is transformative. This is learning that enables us to create even greater impact, together. Established in Sault Ste. Marie in 1965 as Algoma College, Algoma University was initially an affiliate of Sudbury's Laurentian University. In 1967, Algoma College began offering classes in a portable building located on the site of what is now Sault College. Algoma College moved into its current location, the former Shingwauk Residential School building, in 1971.In 2008, after operating as Algoma University College for many years, Algoma University was granted its charter, achieving full autonomous university status as Ontario’s 19th University. The Algoma University Act, 2008 was amended in 2021 to authorize Algoma University to grant graduate degrees, certificates, and diplomas in any and all branches of teaching and learning. Algoma University now offers over 30 academic programs across three unique campuses (Brampton, Sault Ste. Marie, Timmins) in a range of diverse fields and through four faculties: Faculty of Business and Economics, Faculty of Cross-Cultural Studies, Faculty of Humanities & Social Sciences and Faculty of Science.The provincial Shingwauk Education Trust (SET) gives ownership of a portion of the site to Anishinaabek people, and Shingwauk Kinoomaage Gamig (SKG), one of nine provincially recognized Indigenous institutes of higher learning is located on the property. SKG provides academic programs, workshops and seminars on the site which reflect the Anishinaabe worldview, distinguished by Anishinaabe ways of learning and knowing. In 2006, Algoma signed a Covenant with SET to reinforce the important work being done for the benefit of all students of Algoma and Shingwauk on the site. In 2018, Algoma University, SET, and SKG reaffirmed their partnership and mutual understanding by signing an addendum to the original Covenant.
