What you study	Computer Science General or Integrated Engineering Software Engineering	Accounting Business Studies Entrepreneurship Finance
What it is	You study how to design and build computer software and systems from the ground up, combining computer science theory with practical engineering problem-solving. This is more applied and hardware-focused than a pure computer science degree, and the co-op requirement means you alternate between classroom terms and paid work terms with employers. It suits people who want hands-on experience in real jobs while learning, and who prefer the structured engineering approach to software development.	A Bachelor of Business Administration is a four-year degree where you study core business concepts like accounting, finance, and marketing, then specialize in areas like human resources or entrepreneurship. This program includes a mandatory co-op work term, so you alternate between classroom learning and paid work experience at a company. It suits students who want practical business skills and real-world workplace exposure alongside theory.
