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 combines the study of how societies work — through anthropology, politics, and social policy — with practical skills in starting and running social enterprises that solve community problems. Unlike a straight business degree, it focuses specifically on ventures designed for social impact rather than profit alone. It suits people who want to understand social change deeply and turn ideas into real projects that help communities.	This program combines a business degree with teacher training, letting you study subjects like accounting, finance, or marketing while simultaneously earning your teaching certification. Unlike a regular business degree, you graduate qualified to teach business courses in high school. It suits students who want a business career but are drawn to education, or who see teaching as a way to use their business expertise.
