What you study	Psychology	Business Studies Economics Finance	Accounting Business Studies Finance Human Resource Management	Accounting Business Studies Computer Science Economics
What it is	You study how the human mind works and how the brain produces behaviour, emotion, and thought. This program combines psychology — the study of behaviour and mental processes — with neuroscience, which looks at the brain's biology and chemistry. It suits people curious about why people think and act as they do, and who want to understand the physical basis of the mind.	You study economics and business together, focusing on how money moves through markets and organizations. Unlike a pure economics program, you learn applied business skills alongside theory, and unlike straight business, you keep a strong grounding in economic analysis. The co-op option lets you do paid work terms with employers, giving you real experience before you graduate. This suits people who want to understand both how economies work and how to apply that thinking to actual business decisions.	You study business fundamentals — accounting, finance, marketing, human resources, and management — at two Lakehead campuses in Ontario and complete mandatory work terms alongside your courses. This structure differs from a standard business degree by splitting your education between Thunder Bay and Orillia and requiring you to alternate semesters of study with paid work experience. It suits students who want practical industry exposure while earning a degree and are comfortable moving between campuses.	A Bachelor of Administration or Commerce teaches you core business skills like accounting, finance, management, and human resources, along with how organizations actually operate. The BComm adds a stronger focus on accounting and financial analysis compared to the BAdmin. Both programs include a co-op work term, so you alternate between classroom and paid work at real companies, building experience while you study. This suits people who want practical business skills, like working with numbers or managing people, and who value learning on the job.
