What it is	A BBA teaches you the fundamentals of running businesses and managing organizations: accounting, finance, marketing, strategy, and operations. You study how companies make decisions and solve real-world problems. This program suits students who want a broad business education before specializing, or who aren't sure which business area interests them most yet.	A BBA is a four-year program where you study how organizations work: accounting, finance, management, marketing, and strategy. Unlike a general business degree, you complete a mandatory co-op work term, alternating semesters in school with paid work in a real business setting. This program suits students who want hands-on experience before graduation and plan to move into business roles.	Commerce is a broad business degree covering accounting, finance, management, and marketing alongside core business concepts. You'll study how organizations operate financially and strategically across different functions. It suits people who want a flexible business foundation before specializing, rather than committing to accounting or finance alone from day one.
