What it is	A Bachelor of Commerce is a four-year degree where you study business topics like accounting, finance, marketing, and management. In your first year, you take a mix of foundational courses across all these areas before choosing a specialization in second year. It suits students interested in how organizations work and make decisions, who want flexibility to explore different business fields before committing to one.	Commerce is a broad business degree where you study accounting, finance, marketing, management, and related topics. You choose a concentration like accounting or finance to specialize, rather than studying one narrow area. It suits people interested in business fundamentals and real-world work experience, since the program includes optional co-op placements that let you alternate between classes and paid jobs in your field.
