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 how economies work: money, trade, jobs, markets, and government policy. This BA degree lets you choose a co-op option, meaning you alternate between semesters of classes and paid work terms at organizations that use economic analysis. It suits people who want both theoretical understanding and real workplace experience before deciding whether to pursue economics further.	A joint honours program combining mathematics and economics means you study both subjects equally throughout four years, learning to use mathematical methods to solve economic problems and understand quantitative analysis. Unlike a major-minor combination, you complete a full degree's worth of courses in each field. This program offers a co-op option, letting you work in related jobs during your studies. It suits people drawn to both abstract mathematics and real-world applications in business, policy, or finance.	A three-year mathematics degree where you study pure and applied mathematics without the depth required for honours. You choose electives from computer science, physics, statistics, and economics to build a program suited to your interests rather than following a fixed honours sequence. This suits students who want solid mathematical training for careers in business, teaching, or technical fields without committing to graduate-level mathematics study.
