| What it is | This program teaches you how to manage money, investments, and financial decisions for businesses and organizations. Finance is more specialized than general commerce — you focus on banking, markets, and corporate finance rather than broader business topics. A co-op option lets you alternate between classroom and paid work terms. It suits people who are comfortable with math, curious about how money moves through the economy, and want practical experience alongside their degree. | This program teaches you business fundamentals with a focus on managing operations and commerce across different countries. Unlike a general commerce degree, international management emphasizes global trade, cross-cultural business practices, and how companies work in multiple markets. It suits people interested in business careers with a global outlook, and you can choose a co-op stream to gain paid work experience alongside your studies. | You study the theory and practice of running organizations and businesses. The program covers accounting, finance, marketing, human resources, and management, with flexibility to focus on areas that interest you most. It includes a co-op work term, so you alternate between classroom learning and paid work experience in real organizations, which suits people who want to apply what they learn and build professional networks while studying. |
