What it is	Cultural Studies and Business combines the study of literature, history, and culture with practical business skills like accounting and management. Unlike a straight business degree, you'll spend significant time analyzing texts, ideas, and societies alongside your coursework in finance and administration. This program suits students who want business training but also value understanding human culture, society, and communication.	You study how power, politics, and social systems shape gender and women's experiences, combining feminist theory with political analysis. Unlike a straight political science program, you examine how gender operates across institutions, law, and society rather than treating it as a side topic. This suits you if you're interested in social justice, policy work, or understanding how political systems affect different groups.	You study business fundamentals — accounting, finance, marketing, human resources, and management — at two Lakehead campuses in Ontario and complete mandatory work terms alongside your courses. This structure differs from a standard business degree by splitting your education between Thunder Bay and Orillia and requiring you to alternate semesters of study with paid work experience. It suits students who want practical industry exposure while earning a degree and are comfortable moving between campuses.
