What it is	You study the core principles of business — accounting, economics, management — with a focus on how money moves through organizations and markets. Finance specialization means you dive deeper into investment analysis, corporate finance, and financial decision-making than you would in a general business degree. The program includes a co-op work term, giving you real workplace experience. This path suits people drawn to analyzing data, solving money-related problems, and working toward roles in banking, investment, or corporate finance.	A Bachelor of Business Administration is a four-year degree where you study core business concepts like accounting, finance, and marketing, then specialize in areas like human resources or entrepreneurship. This program includes a mandatory co-op work term, so you alternate between classroom learning and paid work experience at a company. It suits students who want practical business skills and real-world workplace exposure alongside theory.
