King’s common first year provides economics and finance students an opportunity to study within their chosen field of study while still receiving a broad liberal arts foundation. By third and fourth year, students engage with specialized curriculum tailored to their chosen Program(s) of study; be it economics, finance, financial economics, and/or a combination of programs offered by different faculties. Students wishing to pursue graduate studies complete an undergraduate thesis mentored by a faculty member and all students have the option of working toward an industry recognized designation in part through their academic studies. They can also participate in Western’s internship and study abroad opportunities to enhance their academic and student experience.
Bachelor of Management and Organizational Studies (BMOS)

Specialized degree programs in:

First year BMOS students take a common core of Math, Economics, and Business and then select 2.0 elective courses based on their areas of interest and potential Program(s) of study. They specialize into one of four streams beginning in second year. Each stream is linked to a professional designation or certificate program for students intent on working in a specialized field upon graduation.
Internship Program Studies
The BMOS program offers an Industry Internship Program (IIP) for students interested in practical degree-related experience in an employment setting prior to graduation. Internships are available across a broad sector
of private and public companies and are aligned with Program(s) of study. Students spend 8 – 16 months working in their chosen industry between the third and fourth years of their degree.
