What it is	You study the causes, effects, and solutions to conflict at local, national, and global scales, drawing on geography, politics, development, and social policy. This program emphasizes understanding conflict through multiple disciplines rather than focusing narrowly on one field. It suits students interested in humanitarian work, policy analysis, diplomacy, or activism who want a broad foundation in how societies experience and resolve disputes.	You study how economies work, how people make financial decisions, and how businesses operate, with courses in accounting, statistics, and related math. The iBA version requires you to complete your degree with significant study in both English and French, while the regular BA has a minimal language requirement. This program suits students interested in understanding markets, policy, and numbers rather than just doing accounting or business management alone.	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.
