Bachelor of Business Administration (Sustainable Business Practices) Virtual Info Session
2026-03-18 17:00 - 18:00 | Online via MS Teams
This event is FREE to attend but we do ask that you pre-register online here.
While sustainability is the focus, a combination of liberal arts, science and specific business courses make up this four-year degree. We are proud to say that our students regularly earn medals at the Western Canadian Business Competition, due in part, we’re sure, to our small class sizes which allow our faculty to provide more personalized attention.
The BBA is designed to be flexible and accessible. You can choose to study full-time or part-time, in traditional classrooms or online. You can also choose to focus with specific electives, and enter or exit the program at various points. Qualifying courses from other institutions may be used to meet some of the upper level course requirements.
Please join our BBA instructors to learn more — bring your questions!
