What it is	You study how to use technology and information systems to solve business problems and manage operations in organizations. This program combines business knowledge with hands-on IT skills, unlike a pure computer science degree or a general business program. It suits people who want to work in technology roles within companies but prefer understanding business strategy alongside the technical side, and the co-op term gives you real workplace experience.	Commerce is a broad business degree where you study accounting, finance, marketing, management, and related topics. You choose a concentration like accounting or finance to specialize, rather than studying one narrow area. It suits people interested in business fundamentals and real-world work experience, since the program includes optional co-op placements that let you alternate between classes and paid jobs in your field.	You study the theory and practice of running organizations and businesses. The program covers accounting, finance, marketing, human resources, and management, with flexibility to focus on areas that interest you most. It includes a co-op work term, so you alternate between classroom learning and paid work experience in real organizations, which suits people who want to apply what they learn and build professional networks while studying.
