What it isBusiness Administration is a broad program where you study how organizations operate, make decisions, and manage resources. You'll learn about accounting, finance, marketing, human resources, and strategy across various industries. The co-op component means you'll alternate between classroom learning and paid work terms at real companies, giving you practical experience alongside your degree. This program suits students interested in business fundamentals who want to build a foundation before specializing, and who value learning on the job.Commerce is a broad business degree where you study accounting, finance, marketing, management, and related topics. You choose a concentration like accounting or finance to specialize, rather than studying one narrow area. It suits people interested in business fundamentals and real-world work experience, since the program includes optional co-op placements that let you alternate between classes and paid jobs in your field.International Business is a business degree that prepares you to work across borders and cultures, combining core business subjects like accounting, management, and marketing with a focus on global economics and international development. Unlike a general business program, it emphasizes the particular skills and knowledge needed for companies operating in multiple countries. It suits students interested in trade, global markets, or managing international teams, and who are comfortable with both quantitative and social science coursework.
