The Bilingual Bachelor of Commerce (BBCom)

The four-year Bilingual Bachelor of Commerce (Baccalauréat bilingue en administration des affaires) degree is a collaborative effort between Campus Saint-Jean and the Alberta School of Business. This program, unique in Canada, offers students the opportunity to obtain a fully bilingual Business degree in Canada’s two official languages.

Half of the courses are taught in French at Campus Saint-Jean and the other half in English at the Alberta School of Business. The BBCom program provides students with a background in diverse areas of Business along with in-depth study of a specific area of interest through a choice of twelve majors.

Program Structure

The Bilingual Bachelor of Commerce degree program consists of 120 units overall. Coursework is taken concurrently within both Faculties.

Normally 57 units of courses will be taught in French by the Faculté Saint-Jean and 63 units of courses offered in English at the Alberta School of Business. Students must maintain this distribution between the two faculties, except in exceptional circumstances. All first-year courses, as well as the second semester of second-year courses, are offered at the Campus Saint-Jean.
