What it is	Interior design teaches you to plan and furnish indoor spaces — homes, offices, shops, restaurants — combining aesthetics, function, and building codes. You'll learn design software, materials, colour theory, and how to work with clients and contractors. The co-op component means you alternate between classroom semesters and paid work terms in design firms, giving you real workplace experience before you graduate.	You study accounting and business fundamentals, learning how to manage finances, prepare financial reports, and understand how organizations operate. The co-op option lets you alternate between classroom terms and paid work terms at real companies, giving you practical experience alongside your degree. This program suits people who want to combine accounting knowledge with broader business skills and prefer learning through hands-on workplace experience.	This is a two-year applied business program covering accounting, finance, management, and economics fundamentals. Unlike a four-year bachelor's degree, it gets you working faster with practical skills employers want immediately. It suits students who want hands-on business training without the length or theory-heavy focus of a university degree.
