What you study	—	Mathematics Statistics	Accounting Business Studies Economics Finance
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.	A BA in Mathematics at York means you study pure mathematics, applied mathematics, and statistics — the theory behind numbers, equations, and data analysis. You can choose to do the program with co-op, which means you alternate between semesters of coursework and paid work terms at employers who need mathematical problem-solving skills. This suits people who want flexibility in how they learn and who value real-world experience alongside classroom study.	A BBA is a four-year business degree where you study core topics like accounting, finance, marketing, and human resources alongside economics and general business strategy. Unlike some business programs, this one includes co-op work terms, meaning you alternate between classroom learning and paid jobs at companies, giving you real workplace experience before you graduate. It suits students who want a broad business foundation with hands-on learning and don't yet know which specific business path they'll take.
