Year 1 & 2 - The first two years of the B.Comm. program are common for all students (except those pursuing the B.Comm./LL.B. second degree program). The majority of required courses introduce students to business principles. Students choose their non-Commerce electives from other colleges. The electives are included to provide a general base of knowledge in various disciplines.
Year 3 & 4 - The last two years of the B.Comm. program vary according to major. Students also choose their free senior electives (senior COMM and non-Commerce courses). Year 3 and 4 are designed to provide a focused education in a particular field with electives that complement and supplement the major choice.
Students enrolled in the B.Comm. program prior to September 2006 will complete the 1996/2001 curriculum. Students enrolled in the program starting in September 2006 will complete the 2006 curriculum.
