Commerce/Actuarial Science

Bachelor of Commerce

Introduction

The following recommended program sequence is for students admitted into the Combined BComm/BSc (Actuarial Science) degree program. The last three fall and last three winter courses listed below need not necessarily be taken in the sequence indicated.

Courses recommended in your first year

1. Students who delay completing the junior English course beyond first year may have difficulty registering for it in a later year due to registration restrictions.

2. Mathematics 267 and 211 or 213 are prerequisites for many 300 level courses in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics.

3. Management Studies 217 and Strategy and Global Management 217 may be completed in either the fall or the winter term of Year 1. It is recommended, but not required, that these courses be taken in separate terms.

Applying for a combined degree after first year

Students admitted to only one of the BComm or BSc (Actuarial Science) degree programs, with the intent of applying into the combined BComm/BSc (Actuarial Science) degree program in a later year, are instructed to contact advisors in each Faculty prior to course registration.

Students who are not admitted into the BComm portion of their intended combined degree in first year and want to apply to Haskayne in the future, would need to complete 18 specific units (6 half-course equivalents) including Economics 201 and 203, Statistics 213* and 217* or equivalents, Mathematics 249 or 265, and a 200-level ENGL course by the end of the winter term in the year of application.

*In these combined degrees, Statistics 321 and 323 replace Statistics 213 and 217, respectively, which are required in the Bachelor of Commerce program.
