| What it is | You study how to manage technology within business organizations — combining business strategy, IT systems, and hands-on management skills. Unlike a pure computer science or business degree, this program focuses specifically on the intersection: how companies implement and lead technology projects. It suits people who want to work in tech-related roles but prefer understanding the business and people side over deep programming. | You study the theory and practice of building software, designing systems, and solving problems with computers. Carleton's program lets you focus on specializations like artificial intelligence, games, or software engineering, and includes a co-op stream where you alternate between classroom and paid work terms. This suits students who want hands-on industry experience alongside their degree and are interested in both the technical and applied sides of computing. | You study business and finance with a focus on health-care data and systems. This combines commerce training with health informatics, so you learn to analyze health-care operations and information rather than just general business. The co-op option lets you alternate between school and paid work terms in health-care or health-tech organizations. This program suits people interested in the business side of health care, who want practical work experience alongside their degree. | You study how to use data and statistical tools to solve problems in finance and banking. The program combines computer science, mathematics, and finance, so you learn to build models and analyze trends rather than just learning finance theory or coding separately. It includes paid work terms with employers, giving you real experience before you graduate. This suits people who want a technical, analytical career in financial institutions or companies that rely on data to make decisions. |
