What it is	You study accounting and business management with a focus on accounting practices, financial reporting, and analysis. This program includes a mandatory co-op term, which means you'll complete paid work placements with employers alongside your coursework, giving you real workplace experience before graduation. It suits people who want to understand how organizations manage money and are ready to combine classroom learning with practical experience in business settings.	This program lets you study how societies, economies, and cultures interact across borders, drawing from fields like history, anthropology, economics, and international development. You'll examine global issues through multiple lenses rather than specializing in one discipline. It suits students curious about world affairs and international problems who want flexibility to explore different approaches before deciding on a deeper focus.	Science One is a general first-year science program that lets you explore multiple science disciplines — biology, chemistry, physics, computer science, and others — before committing to a specific major. Unlike entering directly into a single science program, you take a broader range of foundational courses to discover which field best suits you. It works well for students who are interested in science but unsure which specialization to pursue.
