| 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. | You study business management combined with advanced mathematics and data analysis for finance. This dual program goes deeper into quantitative methods than a standard business degree, letting you build models and analyse financial data rather than just learning business theory. It suits students who are comfortable with math, want finance careers, and prefer hands-on problem-solving over pure theory. | Engineering Science is a broad engineering program where you study math, physics, and engineering fundamentals before specializing in areas like aerospace, electrical, biotechnology, or general engineering. Unlike traditional engineering programs that lock you into one specialty from year one, this lets you explore multiple fields before choosing your focus. It suits students who are strong in math and science but unsure which engineering discipline fits them best, and who want optional paid work experience integrated into their degree. | You study mathematics, statistics, and finance together to understand how to measure and manage financial risk in banks, investment firms, and insurance companies. Unlike a straight business degree, this program emphasizes the quantitative and mathematical tools that financial professionals actually use to model markets and predict uncertainty. The co-op option lets you work in the industry while you study. This program suits people who are comfortable with advanced math and want to apply it to real-world financial problems. |
