What it is	Financial Mathematics and Economics is a mathematics-based degree that combines the study of economic systems and financial markets with advanced math and statistics. Unlike a pure economics or pure mathematics program, it trains you to use mathematical models and analysis to solve real-world problems in finance and economics. It suits students who want rigorous quantitative training and are interested in how money, markets, and economies actually work.	You study mathematics, statistics, and finance together to understand how to measure and manage financial risk in banks, investment firms, and insurance companies. Unlike a straight business degree, this program emphasizes the quantitative and mathematical tools that financial professionals actually use to model markets and predict uncertainty. The co-op option lets you work in the industry while you study. This program suits people who are comfortable with advanced math and want to apply it to real-world financial problems.	This program teaches you business fundamentals — accounting, finance, marketing, and management — with a choice of degree type (BA, BBA, or BCom) depending on how specialized you want to get. The BBA and BCom focus more narrowly on business core skills, while the BA pairs business study with broader arts subjects. You can do a co-op term, working in a real business role while you study. It suits people interested in how organizations work and who want practical experience alongside theory.
