What you study	Business Studies Computer Science	Business Studies Others in Business & Administrative Studies Sociology	Business Studies Design Management Studies Marketing
What it is	You study both business and computer science together, learning how organizations use technology and data, plus how to build and manage systems. This combined program goes deeper into both fields than a single-subject degree would, rather than treating computing as just a business tool. It suits people who want technical skills and business knowledge equally, and who see themselves working at the intersection of tech and management.	You study business and organizations through both management and sociology lenses, examining how companies operate in society and affect people. This program blends traditional business topics like accounting and strategy with the social sciences, so you explore not just profits but also ethics, inequality, and community impact. It suits students interested in business who also want to understand the human and social dimensions of commerce, and the optional co-op lets you test this approach through paid work terms.	Graphic Communications Management teaches you to manage the creative and business sides of visual design projects. You study design principles alongside marketing, business strategy, and media production so you can lead teams that create everything from branding to advertising campaigns. It suits people who want to combine artistic thinking with management responsibility, rather than focusing only on design or only on business.
