What you study	Economics	Business StudiesEconomics	AccountingArtificial IntelligenceBusiness StudiesEconomics
What it is	Economics is the study of how people, businesses, and governments make decisions about money, trade, and resources. In this bachelor's degree, you learn economic theory, data analysis, and real-world problem-solving through courses that examine everything from personal finance to global markets. This program suits students who want to understand how the economy works and are interested in careers in business, policy, finance, or research.	You study how businesses work and make decisions by combining practical business skills with economic theory — understanding markets, money, strategy, and how companies fit into the broader economy. Unlike a straight business or economics program alone, you learn both sides together, seeing how economic principles directly shape business choices. This program includes a co-op work term, so you spend time in an actual job alongside your classes. It suits people who want a business career but also care about understanding the bigger economic picture.	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.
