What it isEconomics is the study of how people, businesses, and governments make decisions about money, resources, and trade. You'll learn theories and tools to analyze why markets work the way they do, from individual spending habits to national policies. This program suits people curious about how the world's financial systems operate and who like working with data and logic to solve real-world problems.You study the mathematical and economic theory behind financial markets, investments, and economic systems. This combines rigorous mathematics with economics and finance, giving you tools to analyze real-world economic problems and financial instruments. The co-op option lets you alternate between classroom and paid work terms with employers, building practical experience alongside theory. This program suits people who want depth in quantitative analysis and enjoy connecting abstract math to how money and economies actually work.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.
