| 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. | This program combines the study of how people create, share, and interpret information across media and cultures. You'll choose from areas like creative writing, media studies, publishing, and information technology, rather than specializing in just one. The co-op option lets you work in communications or tech roles while you study, which suits people who want real-world experience alongside their degree and flexibility in choosing which communication field interests them most. | You study how businesses and economies work together, combining business management, finance, and economics theory. Unlike a straight business degree, this program weaves economic analysis throughout, so you learn to think like both an economist and a business manager. It suits people curious about why markets behave as they do and who want to apply that thinking to real business decisions — especially if you want co-op work experience built into your degree. |
