What it is	You study accounting and general business skills, learning how to manage money, prepare financial statements, and understand how organizations operate. Unlike a straight accounting program, this co-op version requires you to complete paid work terms with real employers, so you earn experience and income alongside your courses. It suits people who want hands-on learning in a workplace, need to help pay for university, or want to test whether accounting feels right before committing fully.	You study accounting, the practice of recording, analyzing, and reporting financial information for businesses and organizations. This program differs from general commerce because it focuses specifically on accounting principles and prepares you for accounting designation exams. The co-op stream lets you alternate between semesters of classroom learning and paid work terms at accounting firms. It suits people who like working with numbers, attention to detail, and understanding how businesses manage money.	You study how to run and launch businesses while learning environmental science and sustainability principles. This combines business skills with ecological knowledge, so you understand both profit and environmental impact. The co-op requirement means you alternate between classroom and paid work terms, giving you real workplace experience in green business and sustainability roles. It suits people who want to work in business but care about environmental problems.	This program teaches you business and management skills with a focus on health data and information systems. Unlike a general commerce degree, you study how hospitals, clinics, and health organizations use analytics and technology to make decisions and run operations. It suits people who want to work in healthcare but prefer solving business and data problems over clinical work, and who are willing to do paid work terms alongside their studies.
