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.	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.
