What it is	Computer Engineering combines the design of computer hardware and software systems with practical work experience. Unlike a regular computer engineering program, this version requires you to complete paid work terms alongside your studies, alternating between school and industry jobs. It suits people who want hands-on experience in tech roles while earning money and building a professional network during their degree.	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.	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.
