Program details
Overview
The Finance specialization is part of the Bilingual Bachelor of Commerce / Baccalauréat bilingue en Administration des affaires, delivered through Campus Saint-Jean in partnership with the Alberta School of Business at the University of Alberta. The specialization provides a foundation for careers in banking, investment and portfolio management, mergers and acquisitions, corporate finance, international finance, securities trading, and financial markets. The Alberta School of Business is among a select group of institutions worldwide whose verified curriculum covers at least 70 percent of the Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) Level 1 curriculum, linking the program closely to professional practice and CFA exam preparation. As Canada's first bilingual Bachelor of Commerce, the degree combines French-language instruction with core business coursework accredited through the Alberta School of Business. Admission is non-direct entry, requiring a one-year preprofessional program in economics, mathematics, statistics, English, and French before applying to the Faculty of Business.
