What it is	You study how businesses make money and financial decisions, combining economics, accounting, and management. This program includes a mandatory work placement period where you alternate between classroom and paid internships in real companies, letting you apply what you learn while building experience. It suits students who want practical business skills alongside theory and prefer learning on the job as much as in lectures.	This program teaches you how to manage money, investments, and financial decisions for businesses and organizations. Finance is more specialized than general commerce — you focus on banking, markets, and corporate finance rather than broader business topics. A co-op option lets you alternate between classroom and paid work terms. It suits people who are comfortable with math, curious about how money moves through the economy, and want practical experience alongside their degree.	You study business fundamentals — how organizations work, manage money, make decisions — with a focus on global markets and cross-border trade. The co-op requirement means you alternate between classroom semesters and paid work terms at real companies, giving you practical experience alongside theory. This suits people who want hands-on learning and international exposure while building a professional network before graduation.
