Our program starts with a foundation of business studies in areas such as organizational behaviour, law, economics, finance and accounting, marketing, and operations management. Specialization courses will focus on theories, methods and techniques in various aspects of finance including analysis, planning and risk management.

Humber’s project-based curriculum, designed by industry experts, helps you develop the skills to move from idea to execution, all while learning core business concepts and financial strategies. A senior-level project in your final year will give you experience in problem-solving, evaluating strengths and limitations, and making appropriate decisions in a real-world, team-based environment.

Work Placement

The Humber Bachelor of Commerce – Finance program requires that you complete 14 weeks/ 420 hours of paid work in the summer between your sixth and seventh semesters. This gives you the hands-on, real-world experience that employers value. Your placement will give you the opportunity to explore the field you’d like to work in when you graduate. We will work with employers and our industry partners to help you identify opportunities to pursue.
