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.	You study how to run and launch businesses while learning environmental science and sustainability principles. This combines business skills with ecological knowledge, so you understand both profit and environmental impact. The co-op requirement means you alternate between classroom and paid work terms, giving you real workplace experience in green business and sustainability roles. It suits people who want to work in business but care about environmental problems.	A Business Economics degree combines the study of how economies work with practical business skills like accounting, finance, and data analysis. Unlike a pure Economics program, you'll spend equal time on business applications and economic theory. This suits students interested in understanding markets, organizations, and financial systems from both theoretical and applied angles.	You study core business subjects like accounting, finance, marketing, and human resources, alongside economics and psychology. This program includes a co-op stream, meaning you alternate between classroom terms and paid work terms at companies, giving you real workplace experience alongside your degree. It suits people who want practical business skills and prefer learning by doing, not just theory.
