What you study	Economics Interdisciplinary Studies Mathematics	Accounting Artificial Intelligence Business Studies Economics
What it is	You study both mathematics and economics together as equal subjects rather than taking one as your major and one as a minor. The program includes mandatory work-study terms where you alternate between classroom learning and paid jobs in related fields. This combination suits people who want to understand how numbers, statistics, and mathematical theory apply to real-world economic problems and policy, and who value hands-on professional experience alongside their degree.	This program lets you earn two degrees at once: a business administration credential covering accounting, finance, and entrepreneurship, plus an international studies degree in history, geography, or environmental studies. Unlike a typical business degree, you're required to complete a co-op work term, which gives you practical experience alongside classroom learning. It suits students who want both solid business training and deeper knowledge of global issues or a second subject area.
