What it isThis program teaches you how to design, build, and test software and computer systems. You study programming languages, algorithms, data structures, and how computers work at a fundamental level. It suits people who enjoy problem-solving and logical thinking, whether you want to work in industry, research, or develop your own applications.You study business management combined with advanced mathematics and data analysis for finance. This dual program goes deeper into quantitative methods than a standard business degree, letting you build models and analyse financial data rather than just learning business theory. It suits students who are comfortable with math, want finance careers, and prefer hands-on problem-solving over pure theory.You study business fundamentals — accounting, finance, marketing, management, and human resources — while earning a degree from both University of Ottawa and a partner institution abroad. The dual degree means you spend time at two universities and graduate with credentials from both, giving you international experience and exposure to different business practices. This suits students who want a business foundation with global perspective and the opportunity to study and work in another country.
