What it is	Anthropology is the study of human cultures, societies, and biology across time and geography. You can pursue this through an arts lens (focusing on culture and history), a science lens (emphasizing human biology and evolution), or a combined arts and sciences approach. The program suits students curious about how people live and lived, rather than those seeking a single professional credential.	This program combines the study of how societies work — through anthropology, politics, and social policy — with practical skills in starting and running social enterprises that solve community problems. Unlike a straight business degree, it focuses specifically on ventures designed for social impact rather than profit alone. It suits people who want to understand social change deeply and turn ideas into real projects that help communities.	A Bachelor of Administration or Commerce teaches you core business skills like accounting, finance, management, and human resources, along with how organizations actually operate. The BComm adds a stronger focus on accounting and financial analysis compared to the BAdmin. Both programs include a co-op work term, so you alternate between classroom and paid work at real companies, building experience while you study. This suits people who want practical business skills, like working with numbers or managing people, and who value learning on the job.	This program lets you earn two degrees at once: a business administration credential covering accounting, finance, and entrepreneurship, plus an international studies degree in history, geography, or environmental studies. Unlike a typical business degree, you're required to complete a co-op work term, which gives you practical experience alongside classroom learning. It suits students who want both solid business training and deeper knowledge of global issues or a second subject area.
