What it is	Accounting is the study of how organizations record, manage, and report their money. You learn to prepare financial statements, handle taxes, audit records, and advise on business decisions based on financial data. This program includes mandatory co-op work terms, so you alternate between classroom learning and paid work at accounting firms or in corporate finance departments, giving you real experience before you graduate.	In this program, you study accounting — the practice of recording, organizing, and interpreting a business's financial records. The co-op option means you alternate between classroom terms and paid work terms at accounting firms or other companies, giving you real workplace experience alongside your degree. This suits people who want to learn accounting through a mix of theory and hands-on practice before entering the profession.	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.
