Program details

Overview

This program leads to a Bachelor of Computer Science, Management and Business Systems stream, delivered on campus in Ottawa. It combines courses from Carleton's School of Computer Science with courses from the Sprott School of Business, training students to manage information technology projects and organizations rather than only to build software. Coursework covers the application of computing to large business organizations, including systems analysis, business processes, and IT project management, alongside a computer science core. A co-op option allows students to complete paid work terms during the degree, giving them applied experience with the business-technology combination the stream teaches. The program suits students who want a technical computer science credential with a management orientation, aiming for careers such as IT project manager, business systems analyst, or technology consultant, rather than a purely software-development-focused computer science stream.

Requirements

Admission Requirements: Admission to the Bachelor of Computer Science (Honours), including the Management and Business Systems stream taught jointly by the School of Computer Science and the Sprott School of Business, requires the Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD) or equivalent with six Grade 12 U or M courses. These six courses must include Advanced Functions and Calculus and Vectors. Applicants seeking admission beyond first year must typically present a minimum CGPA of 7.00 (B-) to be considered, and advanced standing is granted only for subjects judged appropriate to the program and stream selected; no credit is given for courses graded below C-. Direct entry to the co-op option additionally requires meeting the program's overall and prerequisite-course cut-off averages, full-time registration in the Honours program, and eligibility to work in Canada. The overall admission average is determined each year on a program-by-program basis and is normally higher than this minimum given limited enrolment.
