What it is	Rotman Commerce is an undergraduate business degree covering accounting, economics, finance, and management. Unlike general commerce programs, it includes mandatory co-op work terms where you earn money and gain real workplace experience alongside your studies. It suits students who want practical business training combined with classroom theory and are willing to plan their schedule around work semesters.	This program teaches you economic theory and financial practice together — how money moves through systems, markets behave, and organizations manage their finances. Unlike a pure economics degree, you spend significant time on applied finance: investment decisions, corporate finance, and financial analysis. It suits people who want to understand both the big economic picture and the practical side of managing money.	You study core business subjects like accounting, finance, marketing, and human resources, alongside economics and psychology. This program includes a co-op stream, meaning you alternate between classroom terms and paid work terms at companies, giving you real workplace experience alongside your degree. It suits people who want practical business skills and prefer learning by doing, not just theory.	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.
