劳里埃大学

The combination if Laurier's internationally accredited Lazaridis School of Business and Economics and the University of Waterloo's world renowned Faculty of Mathematics lets you harness the strengths of two top-tier institutions in one program. This is a unique opportunity to learn about business and the applications of math while simultaneously earning two degrees from two universities in five years: a Bachelor of Math (BMath) from Waterloo and a Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA) from Laurier.

You can choose to specialize in both your business and mathematics degrees. You can choose from 10 business concentrations at Laurier! In your mathematics studies, you can focus on areas such as Actuarial Science or Mathematical Finance.

• We have the largest business degree co-op program in Canada, allowing you to learn through practical experience (and make some money too!).
