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.Sports Administration teaches you how to run the business side of sports organizations, from budgeting and marketing to facility management and event planning. You'll study both general business skills and sport-specific topics like exercise science and athlete management. This program suits people who love sports but want careers in leadership and operations rather than playing or coaching.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.
