What you study	Mathematics	Artificial Intelligence Business Studies Computer Science Software Engineering	Business Studies Mathematics
What it is	You study pure and applied mathematics — algebra, calculus, geometry, and how to solve real problems with math. The co-op stream lets you alternate between classroom learning and paid work terms at companies or research labs, giving you practical experience alongside theory. This suits people who want to test whether they prefer pure mathematics, data work, or applied roles in industry before committing to a specialization.	You study both computer science and business administration as integrated degrees, not separate majors. This co-op stream requires you to alternate between classroom terms and paid work terms throughout your program, giving you applied experience in tech and business roles. It suits students who want technical depth and business acumen together, and who are willing to commit to a longer timeline that includes mandatory internships.	You study business and mathematics together as one integrated degree, rather than as two separate majors. The program requires stronger math entry grades than a typical BBA and includes mandatory co-op work terms where you alternate between classroom and paid work in finance, analytics, or related roles. This suits students who want quantitative skills for careers in data analysis, financial modelling, or actuarial work alongside business fundamentals.
