| What it is | You study how to run and launch businesses while learning environmental science and sustainability principles. This combines business skills with ecological knowledge, so you understand both profit and environmental impact. The co-op requirement means you alternate between classroom and paid work terms, giving you real workplace experience in green business and sustainability roles. It suits people who want to work in business but care about environmental problems. | Industrial Design teaches you how to plan and shape physical products — from phones to furniture to medical devices — so they work well, look good, and can actually be made. You'll combine design thinking with engineering and manufacturing knowledge to understand both the creative and practical sides of bringing products to life. The co-op term lets you work in industry while you study, so you apply what you learn to real projects. | This program teaches core business skills — accounting, finance, marketing, and management — through a combination of classroom learning and mandatory paid work terms. Unlike a standard business degree, you complete both a university honours degree and a college diploma, giving you credentials from two institutions and hands-on professional experience alongside your studies. It suits students who want a business foundation, learn better by doing, and value a mix of theory and workplace practice. | A Bachelor of Commerce is a four-year degree where you study business topics like accounting, finance, marketing, and management. In your first year, you take a mix of foundational courses across all these areas before choosing a specialization in second year. It suits students interested in how organizations work and make decisions, who want flexibility to explore different business fields before committing to one. |
