What will I learn?

Learn about the world of business in a Canadian and international context. Year one and two will provide you with a solid foundation in general business, after which you will be able to specialize in Accounting, Financial Services, Hospitality and Tourism Management, Human Resources Management, Management, and Marketing.

More than simply theory, our business program is based on students applying what they learn in a practical use setting. Your professors have real-life expertise and will design projects that allow you to use your growing knowledge in a hands-on manner, often connecting you directly to local business owners for authentic results.

This unique four-year degree program focuses on business in the Canadian and international context. Year one of the program provides a solid foundation in general business. In subsequent years, specializations are available in Accounting, Financial Services, Hospitality and Tourism Management, Human Resources Management, Management, and Marketing.
