Elective Areas

The University follows professional trends in industry closely and develops elective areas that reflect the best professional standards in specific fields. Although students cannot earn a formal credential by completing an elective area, it can be a great way to shape their degree. Currently, UCW offers the following elective area in the BCom degree:


Accounting

Accounting skills are consistently in demand. The accounting elective area, in combination with the rest of the BCom degree, will prepare you for entry into a professional accounting program.


Course Coverage for CPA Programs

Thanks to an articulation agreement between UCW and the Chartered Professional Accountants (CPA) of British Columbia, students can transfer credit courses for direct entry into the CPA Professional Education Program (PEP). This means your career is accelerated by taking the required CPA PEP prerequisite courses while getting your degree, instead of waiting until after you have your Bachelor of Commerce.


Learning Methods

The BCom follows a course framework of four tiers, allowing you to progress efficiently. Team activities are an intrinsic part of many courses and build skills vital for professional success. You will learn through a combination of the following methods:


  • Lectures and class discussions
  • Studying academic literature
  • Looking closely at case studies
  • Team activities
