What it is	You study how economies work, how people make financial decisions, and how businesses operate, with courses in accounting, statistics, and related math. The iBA version requires you to complete your degree with significant study in both English and French, while the regular BA has a minimal language requirement. This program suits students interested in understanding markets, policy, and numbers rather than just doing accounting or business management alone.	You study how to use data and statistical tools to solve problems in finance and banking. The program combines computer science, mathematics, and finance, so you learn to build models and analyze trends rather than just learning finance theory or coding separately. It includes paid work terms with employers, giving you real experience before you graduate. This suits people who want a technical, analytical career in financial institutions or companies that rely on data to make decisions.	This is a two-year applied business program covering accounting, finance, management, and economics fundamentals. Unlike a four-year bachelor's degree, it gets you working faster with practical skills employers want immediately. It suits students who want hands-on business training without the length or theory-heavy focus of a university degree.
