What it is	This program teaches you how economies work: how people make money, how businesses set prices, how governments manage money and jobs, and why some countries are richer than others. You'll study real-world problems like inflation, unemployment, and trade. It suits people who want to understand financial systems and are interested in business, policy, or finance careers without committing to a narrowly specialized degree.

This program includes a co-op component, meaning you alternate between classroom terms and paid work terms at organizations, giving you real workplace experience alongside your degree. It suits students who want to understand how economies work and prefer learning through a mix of theory and hands-on practice.
