What it isYou study how businesses market products and services to customers, covering advertising, consumer behaviour, market research, and brand strategy. Unlike a general commerce degree, this program focuses specifically on marketing. The co-op option lets you complete paid work terms with employers during your degree, alternating with classroom study. This suits students who want practical experience in marketing while earning and networking with companies.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.You study the core skills needed to manage businesses and organizations: accounting, finance, human resources, and economics. Unlike a specialized commerce degree, this program keeps your options broad, letting you focus on different business areas through electives rather than committing to one path early. It suits people who want practical business knowledge but aren't sure yet whether they'll work in corporate management, nonprofits, government, or start their own venture.
