Program details

Overview

This undergraduate program leads to a general Bachelor of Commerce (BComm) degree through the Haskayne School of Business, offering flexibility for students to choose concentration courses that match their personal interests and intended career path. Core courses include Introduction to Business Analytics, Introduction to Business Skills, Introduction to Statistics I, Principles of Macroeconomics, and Principles of Microeconomics. The program incorporates collaborative teamwork on projects, a co-operative work placement that alternates paid full-time work experience with academic study, study-abroad opportunities, and mentorship connections with established professionals. Graduates are prepared for career opportunities in entrepreneurship, management, and sales, and the degree can also serve those considering graduate studies or professional programs such as law, medicine, veterinary medicine, or education. The broad, varied knowledge gained is described as adaptable to a changing job market and economic landscape, appealing to consulting employers. The program suits students who want a business foundation while keeping options open before committing to a specific concentration. Instruction is delivered on campus at the Haskayne School of Business, University of Calgary.
