What it is	In this program, you study accounting — the practice of recording, organizing, and interpreting a business's financial records. The co-op option means you alternate between classroom terms and paid work terms at accounting firms or other companies, giving you real workplace experience alongside your degree. This suits people who want to learn accounting through a mix of theory and hands-on practice before entering the profession.	Accounting teaches you how to record, analyze, and report on money flowing in and out of businesses and organizations. This co-op program includes paid work terms where you apply what you learn in real accounting roles, alternating with classroom study. It suits people who want practical experience alongside theory and are comfortable switching between school and work.	Accounting is the study of how organizations record, manage, and report their money. You learn to prepare financial statements, handle taxes, audit records, and advise on business decisions based on financial data. This program includes mandatory co-op work terms, so you alternate between classroom learning and paid work at accounting firms or in corporate finance departments, giving you real experience before you graduate.	You study how organizations manage money and how broader economic systems work. This co-op program requires you to complete paid work terms alongside your courses, giving you real workplace experience in accounting or business roles while you learn theory. It suits people who want practical skills early, enjoy working with numbers and financial data, and prefer learning by doing alongside classroom instruction.
