What it isYou study how money, investments, and financial decisions work in businesses and markets. This program includes a mandatory co-op component, meaning you alternate between classroom terms and paid work terms at financial firms, giving you real industry experience alongside your degree. It suits students who want practical skills in finance and are willing to commit to structured work placements during their studies.Honours Science is a broad science degree where you choose your major from fields like biology, chemistry, environmental science, computer science, or archaeology. Unlike a general science program, an honours degree requires you to specialize in one subject and complete more advanced courses in that area. It suits students who want a strong grounding in science but haven't yet decided on one specific career path, or who want deeper knowledge in a particular field.You study core business subjects like accounting, finance, marketing, and human resources, alongside economics and psychology. This program includes a co-op stream, meaning you alternate between classroom terms and paid work terms at companies, giving you real workplace experience alongside your degree.
