| What it is | You study chemistry alongside medical and biological sciences, learning how molecules, cells, and chemical processes work in living systems. This combines pure chemistry with applied health science rather than focusing only on one discipline. It suits students interested in understanding the chemical basis of medicine, pharmacology, or biochemistry without committing to a professional health program like medicine. | You study the theory and practice of running organizations and businesses. The program covers accounting, finance, marketing, human resources, and management, with flexibility to focus on areas that interest you most. It includes a co-op work term, so you alternate between classroom learning and paid work experience in real organizations, which suits people who want to apply what they learn and build professional networks while studying. | Commerce is a broad business degree where you study accounting, finance, marketing, management, and related topics. You choose a concentration like accounting or finance to specialize, rather than studying one narrow area. It suits people interested in business fundamentals and real-world work experience, since the program includes optional co-op placements that let you alternate between classes and paid jobs in your field. | You study business fundamentals across accounting, finance, marketing, human resources, and information systems. The co-op option lets you alternate between classroom semesters and paid work terms at companies, giving you real experience alongside your degree. This suits students who learn better by doing and want to build a professional network before graduating. |
