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.	You study how economies work, how people make financial decisions, and how businesses operate, with courses in accounting, statistics, and related math. The iBA version requires you to complete your degree with significant study in both English and French, while the regular BA has a minimal language requirement. This program suits students interested in understanding markets, policy, and numbers rather than just doing accounting or business management alone.	Data Science is the study of extracting useful insights and predictions from large amounts of data using mathematics, statistics, and computer programming. This program combines mathematics and statistics with practical business and economics applications, so you learn both the theory behind data analysis and how to apply it to real-world problems. It suits people who enjoy working with numbers and want to understand how organizations use data to make decisions, especially if you want hands-on workplace experience through co-op placements.
