What it isA program in which you study how to design, build, and maintain software and computer systems. The BCS degree focuses more on the theory and mathematics behind computing, while the BA allows you to combine computer science with other subjects. Both paths prepare you for software development, systems design, or related technical roles, and include paid work terms through co-op so you gain real experience while studying.You study both business management and finance alongside advanced statistics and quantitative methods, earning two degrees instead of one. Unlike a single business degree, this program embeds rigorous statistical and mathematical training throughout, preparing you to work with complex financial data and models. It suits students who want careers in investment analysis, risk management, or quantitative finance and are comfortable with both business concepts and higher mathematics.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.
