What it is	This program teaches you how to design, build, and test software and computer systems. You learn programming, algorithms, data structures, and how computers work at a fundamental level. The co-op option requires you to complete paid work terms at companies alongside your studies, giving you real workplace experience before you graduate — something most computer science programs don't mandate.	You study accounting and business fundamentals, learning how to manage finances, prepare financial reports, and understand how organizations operate. The co-op option lets you alternate between classroom terms and paid work terms at real companies, giving you practical experience alongside your degree. This program suits people who want to combine accounting knowledge with broader business skills and prefer learning through hands-on workplace experience.
