Undergraduate Programs

At Trent, we recognize the integral role innovative and creative thinking plays in the world of business. That's why our popular Business School offers undergraduate students all the advantages of a traditional Bachelor of Business Administration (B.B.A.) and more.

Trent’s B.B.A. focuses on economics, management and entrepreneurship with a full slate of accounting courses that prepare you for the CPA designation or as a launch pad to an M.B.A, graduate school, advanced degrees in Finance, Marketing, HR and Accounting or CPA and CHRP designations.We are also the only university in Canada to offer a wide range of joint majors in Business Administration, allowing you to combine business courses with other areas of interest – from Media Studies to Environmental Studies and everything in between. The Trent advantage allows you to combine your passions and interests and cross boundaries, no matter which program or major you are interested in.
