What it is	This program teaches you how to manage, organize, and run businesses of all sizes. You study accounting, marketing, finance, operations, and strategy across four years, with mandatory work terms built in so you alternate between classroom and paid jobs at real companies. It suits people who want practical business experience alongside theory and prefer learning by doing.	You study how businesses use technology and data to operate and make decisions. This program combines commerce fundamentals with information systems, so you focus on how companies manage software, networks, and digital tools rather than just general business. It suits people who want a business career but prefer working with technology and solving technical problems within an organization.	This program lets you earn two degrees at once: a business administration credential covering accounting, finance, and entrepreneurship, plus an international studies degree in history, geography, or environmental studies. Unlike a typical business degree, you're required to complete a co-op work term, which gives you practical experience alongside classroom learning. It suits students who want both solid business training and deeper knowledge of global issues or a second subject area.
