| What it is | This program teaches you how economies work and how to manage money and investments at personal, business, and government levels. Unlike a straight economics program, it combines both fields so you study market behaviour alongside practical financial analysis and decision-making. It suits people who want to understand how money moves through the world and are interested in applying that knowledge to real careers in banking, policy, or corporate finance. | Economics is the study of how people, businesses, and governments make choices about money, resources, and trade. This program includes a co-op component, meaning you alternate between classroom terms and paid work terms at organizations, giving you real workplace experience alongside your degree. It suits students who want to understand how economies work and prefer learning through a mix of theory and hands-on practice. | 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. | You study business subjects like accounting, finance, and marketing alongside teacher training in a single four-year degree. Unlike a regular business degree, you earn two qualifications at once and complete a co-op work placement, giving you classroom teaching experience while finishing your studies. This suits people who want to become teachers but also want solid grounding in business skills or who are still deciding between those two career paths. |
