What it is	This program teaches you economic theory and quantitative analysis — how markets work, how people make financial decisions, and how to use data and math to test economic ideas. The co-op requirement means you'll alternate between classroom semesters and paid work terms at companies, government agencies, or research organizations, giving you real-world experience alongside your studies. It suits people who enjoy both math and thinking about how societies allocate resources, and who want to build practical skills before graduation.	You study the theory and practice of running organizations and businesses. The program covers accounting, finance, marketing, human resources, and management, with flexibility to focus on areas that interest you most. It includes a co-op work term, so you alternate between classroom learning and paid work experience in real organizations, which suits people who want to apply what they learn and build professional networks while studying.	You study the fundamentals of running a business: accounting, finance, human resources, and strategy, along with emerging areas like artificial intelligence and entrepreneurship. This co-op program alternates classroom learning with paid work terms at real companies, giving you practical experience alongside your degree. It suits people who want hands-on business skills and prefer learning by doing rather than pure theory.
