| What it is | Economics 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 accounting, finance, and business decision-making, learning how to manage money, prepare financial reports, and analyze economic data for organizations. This program requires you to complete paid work terms alongside your courses, alternating between school and real-world jobs in accounting and finance firms, so you graduate with significant professional experience. It suits people who want hands-on workplace learning, need to fund their education through co-op earnings, and are interested in becoming accountants or financial analysts. | 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. |
