What it is	Electrical Engineering (Co-op) teaches you to design, build, and troubleshoot electrical systems and devices, from power generation to electronics and communications. The co-op option requires you to complete paid work terms at engineering companies alongside your studies, giving you real workplace experience before you graduate. The Engineering & Management stream adds business and management courses if you want to lead technical teams or projects later. This program suits students comfortable with mathematics and physics who want hands-on experience in industry while studying.	Commerce is a broad business degree where you study accounting, finance, marketing, management, and related topics. You choose a concentration like accounting or finance to specialize, rather than studying one narrow area. It suits people interested in business fundamentals and real-world work experience, since the program includes optional co-op placements that let you alternate between classes and paid jobs in your field.
