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.	A BA in Mathematics at York means you study pure mathematics, applied mathematics, and statistics — the theory behind numbers, equations, and data analysis. You can choose to do the program with co-op, which means you alternate between semesters of coursework and paid work terms at employers who need mathematical problem-solving skills. This suits people who want flexibility in how they learn and who value real-world experience alongside classroom study.	You study business fundamentals across accounting, finance, marketing, and human resources, with options to specialize in areas like artificial intelligence applications or data management. Unlike a general business degree, this program includes mandatory co-op work terms, so you alternate between classroom learning and paid jobs with employers. It suits people who want practical workplace experience alongside their business education and are ready to commit time to both studying and working.
