Accounting Specialist (BCom) - ASSPE2676

Accounting Specialist (BCom) - ASSPE2676

Rotman Commerce at the University of Toronto offers an innovative curriculum combining studies in management, economics, and the liberal arts for an enriched professional undergraduate experience. The program explores the role of commerce in modern society while developing skill and confidence in analysis, effective communication, and decision making. The Rotman Commerce program offers a Bachelor of Commerce (BCom) degree in three different specialist programs, Finance & Economics, Accounting, and Management.

All programs within the Bachelor of Commerce degree build on a common foundation of business and liberal arts courses. Rotman Commerce students specialize in one of three programs: Accounting, Finance and Economics, or Management. Each program combines courses in management and applied economics with a variety of advanced courses in the liberal arts and sciences. The balance assures graduates of a solid understanding of business and modern society along with a command of critical skills in decision-making and organizational leadership.

Rotman Commerce graduates frequently become economists, accountants, actuaries, financial analysts, marketing analysts, managers of firms and government, or proprietors of small businesses. Some Rotman Commerce students elect to undertake post-graduate studies in the form of further university education: law schools and MBA programs have been particularly favoured destinations of recent graduates.

Enrolment Requirements:

This is a limited enrolment program. Students must have completed 4.0 credits and meet the requirements listed below to enrol.

For students admitted to the Rotman Commerce admission category in Year 1:

Special Requirement

    • Students are admitted to Year 1 of the Faculty of Arts & Science in the Rotman Commerce admission category with an admission guarantee. Students admitted with the guarantee are invited to enrol in the program after first year, provided that the course and grade requirements below (i.e., Guaranteed Admission requirements) are met.
    • Failure to meet any of these requirements, or failure to complete all the required courses within 12 months (a student’s first Fall/Winter and Summer sessions), assuming full-time studies, will result in losing the admission guarantee.

    Completed courses (with minimum grades)
    The following courses with the stated minimum grades are required:

    Notes:

    • Students may repeat any required Guaranteed Admission course once to attain the minimum grade requirement for assessment of their eligibility for admission to the specialist. Any posted grade, whether a failing grade or a passing grade that does not meet the minimum required grade, constitutes an attempt. A course dropped by the published drop date, or with a status of Late Withdrawal (LWD or WDR) does not count as an attempt. Students who have attempted a required Guaranteed Admission course twice and have not achieved the minimum required grade will be ineligible to pursue a Rotman Commerce specialist.
    • All repeated attempts must be completed within 12 months, during a student’s first Fall/Winter and Summer sessions in the Faculty of Arts & Science, in accordance with the terms of the guarantee. Students may not extend the guarantee period in order to meet minimum grade requirements.
    • Students who do not achieve the minimum required grade in MAT133Y1, MAT130H1/​ MAT135H1 and/or MAT136H1, MAT137Y1, or MAT157Y1 after two attempts within 12 months are not permitted to satisfy the requirement by taking an alternative mathematics course.
    • Note that none of the required courses may be completed using the CR/NCR option.
    • Please reach out to Rotman Commerce Academic Services for more details.

For students NOT admitted to the Year 1 Rotman Commerce admission category:

Special Requirement

  • Students must complete the Rotman Commerce Supplemental Application in late April or May of each year.
  • All course admission requirements must be completed by May 1 to be eligible.
  • For information regarding admission to the program, contact Rotman Commerce at rc.admissions@utoronto.ca

Minimum Course Grades and Minimum Grade Average
A limited number of spaces in Rotman Commerce are available to Arts & Science students who were not admitted to first year with the Admission Guarantee.

Minimum grades in each listed course, combined with a minimum grade average in required courses, is needed for entry. The following courses with the stated minimum grades are required:

Admission will be based on marks and the Rotman Commerce Supplemental Application. Admission to Rotman Commerce is competitive. Meeting the minimum academic requirements does not guarantee admission to the program. An average of at least 73% in the prerequisite courses is needed for admission consideration and preference will be given to students whose marks are the result of a single attempt in each course.

Notes:

  • For Arts and Science students admitted to Rotman Commerce, MGT100H1 will be considered equivalent to RSM100H1.
Completion Requirements:

(14.5 credits)

*The combination of ( STA220H1, STA255H1) is considered equivalent to ECO220Y1 for the purposes of completing Rotman Commerce program requirements only. It is not considered equivalent by the Department of Economics. Therefore ( STA220H1, STA255H1) will not count towards an ECO major nor will it count as a pre-requisite for 300+ level ECO courses where ECO220Y1 is required. Please consult the Rotman Commerce Program office if you are considering taking ( STA220H1, STA255H1) to complete your requirements.

Notes:

  • Students may enrol in only one Rotman Commerce Specialist.
  • Students must take a minimum of 8.0 credits in RSM and 8.0 credits in non-RSM courses to complete their Specialist requirements. MGT100H1 is considered equivalent to RSM100H1 and counts as 0.5 credit in RSM courses towards this requirement.
  • The CR/NCR option cannot be used for any program completion requirements, and the 8.0 RSM credit requirement. Refer to the Rotman Commerce website for CR/NCR details.

Animal Physiology Major (Science Program) - ASMAJ1538

Animal Physiology Major (Science Program) - ASMAJ1538

Students learn to compare and contrast the physiological systems of different animal species, or of a single species under difference environmental conditions. This experimental science strives to understand how physiological systems allow animals to adapt to their individual and ever-changing environments. Through a systems-level approach, from molecules to organisms, students gain an understanding of how emergent properties arise when physiological components operate as a whole.

After foundational courses in first and second year, students participate in advanced lecture, seminar and laboratory courses, and are encouraged to apply for research project courses in the laboratories of the Department. Course offerings include neurophysiology, respiratory physiology, endocrinology, sleep physiology and comparative cellular physiology.

Enrolment Requirements:

This is an open enrolment program. A student who has completed 4.0 credits may enrol in the program.

Applied Data Science Minor (Science Program) - ASMIN0160

Applied Data Science Minor (Science Program) - ASMIN0160

More than at any other time in our history, we are living through a paradigm shift in how we think about data. Advances in computing power, algorithms for data modeling and machine learning, coupled with unparalleled access to vast quantities of data has transformed disciplines across the sciences, social sciences, and humanities. The Minor in Applied Data Science will help students learn fundamental data science methodologies drawn from computing and statistics and provide opportunities to apply these methodologies to datasets, problem domains, and explorations in many disciplines of study in Arts & Science. Understanding the human and ethical contexts and communicating results of data science methodologies will appear in courses throughout the program.

The minor is designed to complement programs in other areas with opportunities for data science applications (see program requirements for pertinent programs). This program is designed to be accessible to students who have never done any computer programming or statistics before, or who haven’t taken high school or university calculus. All skills necessary to succeed in the program are taught in our courses. Most students who are interested in this program should start by choosing one of our three introductory, interdisciplinary data science courses: EEB125H1, GGR274H1, or ENG286H1, which introduce data science skills such as computer programming, statistical reasoning, and data visualization within the context of a particular discipline. Students then proceed to take a suite of key computer science and statistics courses that reinforce and extend these skills, with an emphasis on applications to real-world problems. Finally, in later years students will choose from a wide variety of courses drawn from across the Faculty of Arts & Science. These upper-year courses will provide the opportunity to discuss and analyze the human contexts of data science, and to apply data science methodologies in discipline-specific contexts.

Enrolment Requirements:

This is a limited enrolment program. Students must have completed 4.0 credits and meet the requirements listed below to enrol.

Variable Minimum Grade
A minimum grade is needed for entry, and this minimum may change each year depending on available spaces and the number of applicants. Eligibility is based on the following criteria:

Asian Canadian Studies Minor (Arts Program) - ASMIN2728

Asian Canadian Studies Minor (Arts Program) - ASMIN2728

The Minor in Asian Canadian Studies is an interdisciplinary program focused on understanding and productively engaging with the social, political, historical, economic and cultural conditions that lead Asian Canadians to come to understand themselves as such, and thus what it means to be Asian Canadian. The program addresses how Asian Canadians have participated in the making of their own communities and contributed to the building of contemporary Canadian society. It is concerned with issues of social, political and ecological justice, especially with regards to historical and contemporary exclusion, violence and rupture. In addition, the program addresses Asian migration, hybridity, globality, movement, displacement and diaspora, particularly as they unfold in Canadian and Turtle Island contexts. Conversations about cultural and political agency and responsibility are key, as are conversations about relationships, especially with Indigenous and Black communities and individuals. Some of our interdisciplinary courses connect students with local communities, and every course provides opportunities for students to pursue a choice of research interests. Together we critically investigate and add to knowledge for and about Asian Canadians.

The category "Asian Canadian" is widely understood to refer to people in Canada of East Asian, South Asian, Southeast Asian, and West Asian ancestry.

Students choose from an array of courses in Asian Canadian Studies; and take additional courses related to the larger contexts of Asian Canadian Studies. The Minor in Asian Canadian Studies is easily combined with other disciplines, such as Anthropology, Art, Economics, English, Geography, History, Political Science and Sociology, as well as with interdisciplinary studies such as Contemporary Asian Studies, Diaspora and Transnational Studies, Critical Studies in Equity and Solidarity, East Asian Studies, South Asian Studies, and Near Eastern Studies.

Students will be encouraged to take full advantage of the opportunities available through the Canadian Studies Program, including its journal, ImagiNATIONs, produced by and for undergraduate students and its annual undergraduate student conference. The Canadian Studies Student Union is a focal point for social as well as academic pursuits, and is open to students pursuing a Minor in Asian Canadian Studies.
