What it is	This program teaches you business fundamentals—accounting, management, marketing, and economics—while requiring you to complete paid work terms alongside your studies. The co-op requirement means you'll alternate between semesters of coursework and semesters working in actual business roles, giving you real workplace experience before you graduate. It suits people who learn by doing and want to test career interests in business while earning money and building a professional network.	An Honours Arts degree lets you study humanities and social sciences in depth, choosing from subjects like history, English, anthropology, environmental studies, and others. Unlike a general arts degree, an honours program requires more advanced courses in your chosen major and typically demands higher academic performance. This program suits students who want to explore ideas across cultures, societies, and texts, and who are willing to commit to deeper study in at least one subject area.	This program combines humanities and social science courses with business and economics studies, letting you explore subjects like English, anthropology, creative writing, and French alongside business fundamentals. Unlike a straight business degree, you'll develop critical thinking and communication skills through arts coursework while learning business concepts. It suits students who want business knowledge but prefer a broader education and enjoy reading, writing, languages, or cultural studies.
