| What it is | This program combines the study of global economics, politics, and development issues to understand how countries and communities interact in an interconnected world. You'll examine poverty, trade, governance, and social change across different regions, drawing on economics, political science, and other disciplines. The co-op requirement means you'll alternate between classroom semesters and paid work placements with organizations focused on international development or global affairs, making it a fit for students who want practical experience alongside theory. | This program lets you study mathematics while choosing how to apply it — through business, economics, statistics, artificial intelligence, or education. Unlike a pure mathematics degree, you're expected to connect mathematical theory to real-world problems in fields like finance, operations, or data analysis. It suits students who enjoy math but want flexibility to explore where it leads them, rather than committing to one specialty upfront. | A BBA is a four-year business degree where you study core topics like accounting, finance, marketing, and human resources alongside economics and general business strategy. Unlike some business programs, this one includes co-op work terms, meaning you alternate between classroom learning and paid jobs at companies, giving you real workplace experience before you graduate. It suits students who want a broad business foundation with hands-on learning and don't yet know which specific business path they'll take. |
