What you study	Economics	Economics	Accounting Business Studies Education Studies Entrepreneurship
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 economies work: money, trade, jobs, markets, and government policy. This BA degree lets you choose a co-op option, meaning you alternate between semesters of classes and paid work terms at organizations that use economic analysis. It suits people who want both theoretical understanding and real workplace experience before deciding whether to pursue economics further.	This program combines a business degree with teacher training, letting you study subjects like accounting, finance, or marketing while simultaneously earning your teaching certification. Unlike a regular business degree, you graduate qualified to teach business courses in high school. It suits students who want a business career but are drawn to education, or who see teaching as a way to use their business expertise.
