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.	This program combines the study of how cities and human communities interact with natural systems, drawing on environmental science, geography, and social perspectives. You'll examine urban planning, resource use, climate impacts, and sustainability solutions across both natural and human dimensions. The co-op option lets you work in government, nonprofits, or consulting firms while you study, which suits people who want practical experience alongside classroom learning.	This program lets you earn both an arts degree and a teaching qualification at the same time, typically in four years. You choose a subject to study deeply (like English, history, or math) while taking education courses that prepare you to teach junior and intermediate grades. It suits students who know they want to teach and want to combine subject expertise with classroom training from the start, rather than doing them separately.
