What it is	Computer Science at Wilfrid Laurier Milton teaches you to design, build, and troubleshoot software and systems. Both the BA and BSc paths cover the same core material, but the BSc includes more math and science depth, while the BA offers more flexibility to study other subjects alongside programming and theory. The co-op option lets you alternate between school and paid work terms in tech companies. This program suits people who want hands-on technical skills and real workplace experience before graduating.	This program teaches you business fundamentals with a focus on managing operations and commerce across different countries. Unlike a general commerce degree, international management emphasizes global trade, cross-cultural business practices, and how companies work in multiple markets. It suits people interested in business careers with a global outlook, and you can choose a co-op stream to gain paid work experience alongside your studies.	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.
