Business Administration Diploma of College Studies
ObjectivesDesigned to provide students with an in-depth understanding of accounting and management, the program is focused around a core of accounting courses, and incorporates the latest in information technology. Business Administration graduates also acquire skills in a wide variety of business functions including marketing, finance, taxation and management. A total of 29 of the 43 courses that make up the Program are specifically related to the business discipline.
Practical experienceThe Work/Study (Co-op) option: Eligible students apply to work at up to 3 paid stages. In the first two years of the program, the 8 week stage (35hrs/wk) will take place in June & July. In the third year, the stage will take place in January-February, followed by a compressed last semester that will allow students to graduate in May. Students enrolled in the co-op option will be paid employees of the company during the period of their stage and supervised by a representative of the company and the co-op teacher. Employment opportunities will be selected by the teachers of the program based on the competencies obtained by the students in the prior year(s). The second option is a one-month unpaid stage in industry at the beginning of the sixth semester. Work placement locations for both options have been expanded from the Montreal area to include possible international work placements in the whole of North America and Europe. This allows students to not only apply their knowledge but also have the opportunity to learn about other cultures and work methods.
