What it is	Commerce is a broad business degree covering accounting, finance, management, and marketing alongside core business concepts.

It suits people who want a flexible business foundation before specializing, rather than committing to accounting or finance alone from day one.	A four-year program where you study accounting principles, financial reporting, and tax practices alongside core business courses like management and economics. Unlike a general business degree, this stream prepares you specifically for accounting roles and professional designation pathways. It suits students who want to work with numbers and financial systems, with an optional co-op option to gain workplace experience.
