What it isYou study business and computer science together as one integrated degree, learning both how to manage organizations and how to build software systems. Unlike a regular business degree, you gain technical depth in programming, databases, and systems design alongside strategy and finance. This suits students who want to work at the intersection of technology and business — such as roles in software product management, IT strategy, or startup development — and who are comfortable with demanding math and coding coursework.You study how to design and build software and computer systems, with options to specialize in game development. The co-op requirement means you complete paid work terms at tech companies alongside your classroom learning, giving you real industry experience before graduation. This program suits students who want hands-on technical training and the chance to build a professional network early in their degree.You study the theory and practice of computer programming, software design, and how to build applications and systems. The co-op option lets you alternate between school terms and paid work terms at companies, giving you real workplace experience alongside your degree. This program suits people who want to combine hands-on coding skills with an understanding of how software works in actual business and technology settings.
