What it is	You study an undergraduate arts degree in a subject like anthropology, English, or criminology, then continue into a master's in business administration, all while working in paid internships throughout the program. The co-op placements let you gain real workplace experience in business and related fields alongside your coursework. This suits people who want to combine deeper knowledge in a humanities or social science area with professional business training and aren't sure whether they want to jump straight into an MBA right after high school.	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.	A Bachelor of Commerce is a four-year business degree where you study accounting, finance, marketing, human resources, and management. McMaster's program includes a mandatory co-op work term, so you alternate between classroom learning and paid work experience at real companies. This program suits people who want broad business knowledge and practical work experience before entering the job market.
