What it is	You study pure and applied mathematics — algebra, calculus, geometry, and how to solve real-world problems using mathematical tools. This is a general math program rather than a specialized stream like actuarial science or mathematics education. It suits students who enjoy abstract reasoning and want flexibility to apply math in science, technology, finance, or further study.	You study economics and business together, focusing on how money moves through markets and organizations. Unlike a pure economics program, you learn applied business skills alongside theory, and unlike straight business, you keep a strong grounding in economic analysis. The co-op option lets you do paid work terms with employers, giving you real experience before you graduate. This suits people who want to understand both how economies work and how to apply that thinking to actual business decisions.	This program lets you study mathematics while choosing how to apply it — through business, economics, statistics, artificial intelligence, or education. Unlike a pure mathematics degree, you're expected to connect mathematical theory to real-world problems in fields like finance, operations, or data analysis. It suits students who enjoy math but want flexibility to explore where it leads them, rather than committing to one specialty upfront.
