What it is	Computer Science at Windsor covers programming, systems design, and problem-solving with technology. You can specialize in areas like artificial intelligence, game development, animation, or software engineering depending on your degree choice. The program includes optional co-op work terms, letting you gain industry experience alongside your studies — a fit if you want hands-on learning and want to test career paths before graduating.	You study how businesses use technology and data to operate and make decisions. This program combines commerce fundamentals with information systems, so you focus on how companies manage software, networks, and digital tools rather than just general business. It suits people who want a business career but prefer working with technology and solving technical problems within an organization.	Sports Administration teaches you how to run the business side of sports organizations, from budgeting and marketing to facility management and event planning. You'll study both general business skills and sport-specific topics like exercise science and athlete management. This program suits people who love sports but want careers in leadership and operations rather than playing or coaching.	You study business and organizations through both management and sociology lenses, examining how companies operate in society and affect people. This program blends traditional business topics like accounting and strategy with the social sciences, so you explore not just profits but also ethics, inequality, and community impact. It suits students interested in business who also want to understand the human and social dimensions of commerce, and the optional co-op lets you test this approach through paid work terms.
