Concentration Courses

BACS 472 Taxation 6

BACS 476 Auditing 6

BACS 485 Accounting Theory 3

BACS 494 Managerial Accounting 6

Breadth Courses

BACS 202 Canadian Society and the Contemporary World 6

Transfer Credits for Breadth Courses

Applicants requesting transfer credits must present to the regional CGA Associations official transcripts as evidence of successful completion of a course and if requested, a course syllabus.

A maximum of 12 hours of credit (two full-course equivalents) may be transferred into the BAccS program.

Information regarding transfer credit for breadth courses may be obtained from either the Admissions Office or the Haskayne School of Business.

Students may elect to complete the Bachelor of Commerce degree in combination with another approved undergraduate degree. Five-year combined degree programs are sponsored jointly by the Haskayne School of Business and a second faculty, and lead to two Bachelors' degrees awarded at the same convocation ceremony. The program is comprised of a minimum of 50 half-course equivalents, including all requirements of the two Faculties.

Students wishing to embark on the courses leading to a combined degree are strongly advised to enter the five year program directly in first year. The admission criteria that apply to the singular Bachelors' degrees apply equally to the direct entry combined degree program. Early contact with the Undergraduate Programs Offices of the two Faculties ensures that admission and graduation requirements are met in a reasonable timeframe and within the minimum 50 half-course equivalents.

Students that are not admissible or defer entering the Haskayne School of Business directly may apply for combined degree admission in third year, upon successful completion of the twenty pre-commerce or twenty 1st Year and 2nd Year combined degree requirements (listed below). Fewer spaces exist for third year entrance into the business school however, and students are cautioned that admission is highly competitive and subject to the cut-off grade point average being met. Applications for admission to the business school in second year will not be considered.

Students already admitted into the Bachelor of Commerce and interested in transferring to a combined degree program, are urged to consult advisors in both Faculties for admission and program details.

For administrative purposes, combined degree students shall be registered under the Haskayne School of Business. Students may elect to remain in the combined degree or switch to either of the two separate degree programs, as long as the requirements of each Faculty continue to be met. Failure to meet requirements will result in a student being required to withdraw from the combined or separate programs, as the case may be.

The following templates are provided to assist students in course planning. Any Bachelor of Commerce concentration may be chosen in combination with those majors listed below. Students interested in pursuing majors other than those listed, must seek approval of the Associate Deans of both Faculties. A detailed plan, outlining how the proposed combined degree is to be completed, must be presented at the meeting with the Associate Dean of the Haskayne School of Business.

A major in the Humanities consisting of at least seven or eight full-course equivalents (depending on the major selected) is required. Departmental and Faculty requirements as specified in the Humanities section of this Calendar (refer specifically to the "Combined Programs" section for Faculty requirements) must be fulfilled. Majors are available in Ancient and Medieval History, English, French, General Humanities, German, Greek and Roman Studies, History and Philosophy of Science, Philosophy, Religious Studies, Religious Studies and Applied Ethics, Russian and Spanish. Students planning a Humanities major in French should normally present Grade XII standing in that subject area.
