What it is	You study pure mathematics and statistical analysis — everything from algebra and calculus to probability and data methods. This program includes optional co-op terms where you work in industry or research settings alongside your studies, giving you real experience before graduation. It suits people who want deep technical skills in mathematics or statistics and prefer learning through a mix of classroom theory and workplace application.	This is a two-year applied business program covering accounting, finance, management, and economics fundamentals. Unlike a four-year bachelor's degree, it gets you working faster with practical skills employers want immediately. It suits students who want hands-on business training without the length or theory-heavy focus of a university degree.	This program lets you study mathematics while choosing how to apply it — through business, economics, statistics, artificial intelligence, or education. Unlike a pure mathematics degree, you're expected to connect mathematical theory to real-world problems in fields like finance, operations, or data analysis. It suits students who enjoy math but want flexibility to explore where it leads them, rather than committing to one specialty upfront.	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.
