Program overview

A degree completion route that builds on a two year diploma, adding advanced agricultural economics, business strategy, marketing and finance, policy and international trade, together with an eight month field study placement in industry.

Two features define this route. It is a degree, which matters enormously for work permit purposes, and the eight month field study is long enough to function as real employment rather than a short placement. Applicants enter with a diploma already completed, so this is a two year finish rather than a four year start.

Bachelor of Applied Science in Agribusiness is a degree, so it is exempt from the field of study requirement entirely and no CIP code check applies. The code recorded here, 01.0102, is for your reference only. Study at this level does not carry spousal open work permit eligibility, so anyone considering Bachelor of Applied Science in Agribusiness with a partner should plan on a single income. Every work permit decision rests with Canadian immigration authorities, and Apply Study Visa confirms the position for Bachelor of Applied Science in Agribusiness in writing before you pay a deposit.

  • Commodity Analyst: grain and livestock markets
  • Agricultural Policy Officer: government and industry bodies
