What it isA BBA is a four-year program where you study how organizations work: accounting, finance, management, marketing, and strategy. Unlike a general business degree, you complete a mandatory co-op work term, alternating semesters in school with paid work in a real business setting. This program suits students who want hands-on experience before graduation and plan to move into business roles.You study business fundamentals — how organizations work, manage money, make decisions — with a focus on global markets and cross-border trade. The co-op requirement means you alternate between classroom semesters and paid work terms at real companies, giving you practical experience alongside theory. This suits people who want hands-on learning and international exposure while building a professional network before graduation.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.This program teaches you business fundamentals — accounting, finance, marketing, and management — with a choice of degree type (BA, BBA, or BCom) depending on how specialized you want to get. The BBA and BCom focus more narrowly on business core skills, while the BA pairs business study with broader arts subjects. You can do a co-op term, working in a real business role while you study. It suits people interested in how organizations work and who want practical experience alongside theory.
