What it is	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.	You study business management with a focus on human resources — how companies hire, train, develop, and manage their employees. Unlike a general commerce degree, this program specializes in HR practices, labour relations, and organizational behaviour from day one. It suits students interested in understanding workplace dynamics and building careers in recruitment, employee development, or organizational leadership.
