Business and Society

Note: For purposes of meeting program requirements, all foundations courses will count as six credits towards the major or minor.

Business and society provides the opportunity to study the impact of business on society and the relations between business, social structures and patterns, and government. The program combines courses that provide the analytical tools necessary to study and research business and society with courses that focus on the political, social, and cultural context of business, both in Canada and in the global system. It offers a better understanding of the interaction of economic and social development.
