What it isYou 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.You study economics and business together, focusing on how money moves through markets and organizations. Unlike a pure economics program, you learn applied business skills alongside theory, and unlike straight business, you keep a strong grounding in economic analysis. The co-op option lets you do paid work terms with employers, giving you real experience before you graduate. This suits people who want to understand both how economies work and how to apply that thinking to actual business decisions.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.A Business Economics degree combines the study of how economies work with practical business skills like accounting, finance, and data analysis. Unlike a pure Economics program, you'll spend equal time on business applications and economic theory. This suits students interested in understanding markets, organizations, and financial systems from both theoretical and applied angles.
