What you studyEconomicsBusiness StudiesEconomicsFinance
What it isYou study the principles and systems behind how economies work, from personal finance and business decisions to national and global trade. This three-year degree covers economic theory and real-world applications, giving you a broader education than a specialized business program. It suits people curious about how markets, governments, and money shape society, and who want flexibility to move into business, policy, law, or further study afterward.You study economics and business together, focusing on how money moves through markets and organizations. Unlike a pure economics program, you learn applied business skills alongside theory, and unlike straight business, you keep a strong grounding in economic analysis. The co-op option lets you do paid work terms with employers, giving you real experience before you graduate. This suits people who want to understand both how economies work and how to apply that thinking to actual business decisions.
