Oil / Energy in Canada, Alberta?
JoniMain

Energy/Oil & Gas
Hi there. Would Alberta be the top choice in this field for an MBA in Canada? Any other options come close? I've got 6+ years experience in this industry and would like to hear any other recommendations (as I'm not that keen on Alberta itself but I do plan on studying in Canada).
Merci!
