What it is	Health Administration teaches you how to run hospitals, clinics, and other healthcare facilities. You'll learn business skills like budgeting, planning, and managing staff, combined with enough healthcare knowledge to understand what doctors and nurses actually do. This program suits people who want a career in healthcare but prefer management and operations over direct patient care or medical science.	You study how to run and launch businesses while learning environmental science and sustainability principles. This combines business skills with ecological knowledge, so you understand both profit and environmental impact. The co-op requirement means you alternate between classroom and paid work terms, giving you real workplace experience in green business and sustainability roles. It suits people who want to work in business but care about environmental problems.	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.
