What it isYou study core business subjects like accounting, finance, marketing, and human resources, alongside economics and psychology.

It suits people who want practical business skills and prefer learning by doing, not just theory.Accounting teaches you how to record, analyze, and report on money flowing in and out of businesses and organizations. This co-op program includes paid work terms where you apply what you learn in real accounting roles, alternating with classroom study. It suits people who want practical experience alongside theory and are comfortable switching between school and work.This is a two-year applied business program covering accounting, finance, management, and economics fundamentals. Unlike a four-year bachelor's degree, it gets you working faster with practical skills employers want immediately. It suits students who want hands-on business training without the length or theory-heavy focus of a university degree.You study business fundamentals — accounting, finance, marketing, human resources, and management — at two Lakehead campuses in Ontario and complete mandatory work terms alongside your courses.

It suits students who want practical industry exposure while earning a degree and are comfortable moving between campuses.
