What it is	You study how businesses work and make decisions by combining practical business skills with economic theory — understanding markets, money, strategy, and how companies fit into the broader economy. Unlike a straight business or economics program alone, you learn both sides together, seeing how economic principles directly shape business choices. This program includes a co-op work term, so you spend time in an actual job alongside your classes. It suits people who want a business career but also care about understanding the bigger economic picture.	A Bachelor of Commerce is a four-year business degree where you study accounting, finance, marketing, human resources, and management. McMaster's program includes a mandatory co-op work term, so you alternate between classroom learning and paid work experience at real companies. This program suits people who want broad business knowledge and practical work experience before entering the job market.	You study the core skills needed to manage businesses and organizations: accounting, finance, human resources, and economics. Unlike a specialized commerce degree, this program keeps your options broad, letting you focus on different business areas through electives rather than committing to one path early. It suits people who want practical business knowledge but aren't sure yet whether they'll work in corporate management, nonprofits, government, or start their own venture.
