What it isYou study engineering design by combining computer science, hands-on design work, and problem-solving across multiple engineering fields rather than specializing in one discipline like civil or mechanical engineering alone. This program emphasizes learning how different engineering areas connect and learning to design solutions that draw on several specialties at once. It suits students who want to engineer real products or systems but haven't decided on a single engineering focus, or who like working across different technical areas.You study business fundamentals across accounting, finance, marketing, human resources, and information systems. The co-op option lets you alternate between classroom semesters and paid work terms at companies, giving you real experience alongside your degree. This suits students who learn better by doing and want to build a professional network before graduating.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.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.
