Bachelor of Commerce (BCom)
Highlights
Program structure: building your unique path
With our program, you design the first 3 terms. Complete a mix of required courses and non-business electives to develop business foundations and explore your other interests. Then, dive into the BCom cohort experience in the spring term of year 2, your first term that’s entirely made up of business courses – all taken alongside a group of 50-60 other students.
Year | Fall | Spring | Summer |
---|---|---|---|
Year 1 | Required courses & non-business electives | Required courses & non-business electives | Free |
Year 2 | Required courses & non-business electives | Cohorted term | Work experience |
Year 3 | Cohorted term | Upper level electives | Work experience |
Year 4 | International exchange | Specialization | Optional work experience |
Note: This is a typical schedule for BCom students. Your program order may vary. Students completing the Financial Management (Accounting stream) specialization will have different program sequencing and are encouraged to speak with an advisor upon acceptance into the program, particularly if they wish to pursue an international exchange.
Student stories
Many people think that an education can only be acquired if you’re in a classroom. Well, I think the experience of an international exchange completely disproves this belief. While on exchange I grew as a person, a student and as a global citizen.
