What you study	Biological Sciences Interdisciplinary Studies Music	Accounting Economics Entrepreneurship Finance	Accounting Business Studies Entrepreneurship Finance
What it is	You study both music and biology as full degree programs over five years instead of the usual four. This double degree means you earn two separate degrees — one in each subject — rather than majoring in one and minoring in the other. It suits people who are genuinely committed to both fields and want advanced training in each, not those looking for an easier path or trying to keep options casually open.	A Bachelor of Business Administration is a four-year degree where you study how organizations work and make money. You take courses in accounting, finance, management, human resources, and economics, learning both theory and practical skills for running or working in a business. This program is taught in French, so you need strong French-language skills and must complete foundational math courses, making it suited to students who want a business education while developing or maintaining French fluency.	A Bachelor of Business Administration is a four-year degree where you study core business concepts like accounting, finance, and marketing, then specialize in areas like human resources or entrepreneurship. This program includes a mandatory co-op work term, so you alternate between classroom learning and paid work experience at a company. It suits students who want practical business skills and real-world workplace exposure alongside theory.
