What it is	You study environmental science and sustainability, examining how ecosystems work and how human activities affect the natural world. The co-op option lets you apply classroom learning through paid work terms at environmental organizations, government agencies, or conservation projects. This program suits students who want hands-on experience in environmental fields before deciding on a specific career direction.	You earn two degrees at once: one in science (you pick a major like biology, computer science, or data science) and one in commerce (business and economics). This combined program lets you graduate with credentials in both fields rather than choosing one or the other. It suits students who want scientific or technical expertise plus business knowledge for careers that need both, like environmental consulting, tech entrepreneurship, or data analysis in industry.
