| What it is | This program teaches you business and accounting skills alongside environmental sustainability — how companies manage money while reducing their ecological impact. Unlike a straight business degree, you study both financial management and environmental systems together, and co-op is mandatory, so you work in real companies for four months at a time throughout your degree. It suits people who want a career in business or finance but care about environmental responsibility and learn best by doing real work alongside classroom study. | Social Science is a broad study of how people, societies, and economies work. You choose a focus like economics, anthropology, history, or business studies, then take courses across that field. Western offers this as either a BA or BSc depending on your focus, and you can do it with co-op, meaning you alternate between school terms and paid work placements in your field. | You study business fundamentals — how organizations work, manage money, make decisions — with a focus on global markets and cross-border trade. The co-op requirement means you alternate between classroom semesters and paid work terms at real companies, giving you practical experience alongside theory. This suits people who want hands-on learning and international exposure while building a professional network before graduation. |
