In this program, students delve into the core principles of business while exploring specialized areas that align with their passions and aspirations. The curriculum provides a strong foundation in key domains such as management, computer applications, digital marketing and accounting. In their second semester, students choose between two specialized streams in Accounting or Marketing. Whether you aspire to launch your own venture or lead a team in a larger corporation, Vanier’s Business Administration program provides the flexibility to tailor your studies accordingly.

The Accounting stream at Vanier offers its students unique opportunities, such as the chance to participate in a student-run tax clinic, the Vanier College Accounting Case Competition, and an internship in the final semester.

Marketing stream
