Program details

Overview

This Bachelor of Commerce major focuses on applying information technology to manage and analyze business operations and to solve organizational problems. Students study business processes and how to improve them using technology, while developing expertise in a second business area such as accounting, marketing, human resources, finance, or operations management. The major sits within the Alberta School of Business's Bachelor of Commerce program, which spans five degree types and twelve majors and emphasizes group and project-based coursework alongside opportunities such as business incubators and case competitions. It suits students who want to bridge technology and business management rather than pursue a purely technical computing degree, combining information-technology fluency with working knowledge of a specific business function. Career paths associated with the major on the program page include business consultant, entrepreneur, product manager, and venture capitalist, reflecting the major's emphasis on using technology to inform business decisions and organizational change.

Requirements

Admission Requirements: Alberta high-school applicants to Business Technology Management (BCom) need English Language Arts 30-1, Mathematics 30-1, one subject from Fine Arts, Humanities, Languages other than English, or Math/Sciences, and two further subjects from Humanities, Languages, or Math/Sciences. These are the Bachelor of Commerce's general course requirements stated on the program page; no minimum or competitive admission average, entry-route label, or standardized tests are given, and transfer applicants are referred to the University Calendar.

Application Details

Application Deadline: Domestic applicants apply directly to the University of Alberta, not through a provincial service: for Fall 2027 entry the application window opens 1 October 2026 and the deadline for most programmes is 1 March 2027, though several limited-enrolment programmes close earlier (Juris Doctor, 1 December 2026; Dental Hygiene, 1 November 2026) or later (Bachelor of Design and BFA programmes, 1 May 2027); Spring and Summer 2027 admission also opens 1 October 2026, while Winter intake is limited to a few programmes. International applicants use the identical published dates and online application; the university states no separate international closing date. The 1 March deadline is firm and late applications are not accepted, but admission decisions are then issued on a rolling basis, and offers made before 1 April must be accepted by 1 May 2027. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
