What it is	You study business and computer science together, learning both management and programming skills in an integrated program rather than as two separate degrees. The co-op component requires you to complete paid work terms alongside your studies, giving you real workplace experience in tech or business roles. This suits people who want technical skills plus business knowledge and are willing to balance classroom time with multiple work placements over four or five years.	You study the theory and practice of computing, from writing software and building systems to artificial intelligence and how businesses use technology. The co-op stream requires you to alternate between semesters of coursework and paid work terms at tech companies, giving you real workplace experience alongside your degree. This suits students who want hands-on industry exposure while learning, or who prefer the traditional full-time study path.	You study computer science and finance together, learning to build software systems and understand money management, accounting, and business strategy. This is different from studying either field alone because you learn how technology and financial systems interact. The co-op requirement means you alternate between school and paid work terms, giving you real-world experience in tech or finance companies. This suits people who want both technical skills and business knowledge, and who are ready to commit to the co-op schedule.
