What it is	This program teaches you how to start and run your own business, covering finance, marketing, operations, and strategy. Unlike a general commerce degree, entrepreneurship focuses specifically on launching ventures and solving business problems from scratch. A co-op option lets you work at companies between semesters, while a French immersion stream teaches courses in French. It suits people who want to understand business fundamentals but are drawn to creating something new rather than managing existing organizations.	Commerce is a broad business degree where you study accounting, finance, marketing, management, and related topics. You choose a concentration like accounting or finance to specialize, rather than studying one narrow area. It suits people interested in business fundamentals and real-world work experience, since the program includes optional co-op placements that let you alternate between classes and paid jobs in your field.	You study business fundamentals — how organizations work, manage money, make decisions — with a focus on global markets and cross-border trade. The co-op requirement means you alternate between classroom semesters and paid work terms at real companies, giving you practical experience alongside theory. This suits people who want hands-on learning and international exposure while building a professional network before graduation.	A Bachelor of Commerce is a four-year degree where you study business topics like accounting, finance, marketing, and management. In your first year, you take a mix of foundational courses across all these areas before choosing a specialization in second year. It suits students interested in how organizations work and make decisions, who want flexibility to explore different business fields before committing to one.
