What it is	Water Science combines biology, chemistry, physics, and geography to study how water systems work and how to protect them. You'll examine lakes, rivers, and groundwater from ecological and physical angles rather than focusing only on engineering solutions. This program suits students interested in environmental problems who want a science-based approach grounded in both living systems and earth processes.	Nuclear engineering teaches you how to design, build, and safely operate nuclear reactors and systems that produce power or are used in medicine and industry. The co-op option means you alternate between classroom terms and paid work terms at nuclear facilities or related companies, giving you real workplace experience before you graduate. The engineering and management version adds business and organizational skills alongside the technical training. This program suits students who want hands-on engineering work combined with workplace learning and have strong math and science foundations.
