What you study	Mathematics Statistics	Accounting Mathematics Statistics	Accounting Business Studies Economics Finance	Accounting Business Studies Entrepreneurship Finance
What it is	You study pure mathematics and statistics — how numbers, patterns, and data work at a theoretical level and in real applications. The Bachelor of Science version includes lab-based sciences alongside the math, while the Arts version focuses on math and statistics alone. This program suits students who enjoy abstract problem-solving and want to build strong analytical skills, whether for advanced study, data analysis, or fields that depend on mathematical reasoning.	Actuarial Science is the study of statistics, mathematics, and financial risk — you learn to analyze and predict the likelihood and cost of future events to help insurance companies, pension funds, and other businesses make sound financial decisions. It goes deeper into applied math and probability than a general science degree, preparing you for actuarial certification exams. This program suits students who are strong in math, enjoy working with data and logic, and want to move into financial risk management or insurance.	You study core business subjects like accounting, finance, marketing, and human resources, alongside economics and psychology. This program includes a co-op stream, meaning you alternate between classroom terms and paid work terms at companies, giving you real workplace experience alongside your degree. It suits people who want practical business skills and prefer learning by doing, not just theory.	A Bachelor of Business Administration is a four-year degree where you study core business concepts like accounting, finance, and marketing, then specialize in areas like human resources or entrepreneurship. This program includes a mandatory co-op work term, so you alternate between classroom learning and paid work experience at a company. It suits students who want practical business skills and real-world workplace exposure alongside theory.
