What it is	Computer Science at Western teaches you how to write programs, build software systems, and solve problems using computers and code. You choose a focus — such as game development, managing information systems, or engineering robust software — based on your interests. The program includes paid work terms alongside your studies, letting you apply classroom learning in real jobs and build professional experience before you graduate.	You study business management fundamentals including accounting, finance, marketing, and organizational behaviour, with flexibility to specialize in areas like human resources. The co-op option means you alternate between classroom terms and paid work terms at companies, letting you apply what you learn in real settings. This program suits students interested in business careers who want practical workplace experience alongside their degree.	International Business is a business degree that prepares you to work across borders and cultures, combining core business subjects like accounting, management, and marketing with a focus on global economics and international development. Unlike a general business program, it emphasizes the particular skills and knowledge needed for companies operating in multiple countries. It suits students interested in trade, global markets, or managing international teams, and who are comfortable with both quantitative and social science coursework.
