| What it is | Biochemistry is the study of chemical processes inside living cells and organisms, combining chemistry and biology to understand how life works at a molecular level. This co-op program includes work terms where you apply what you are learning in paid jobs with employers, giving you real workplace experience alongside your studies. It suits students who want a science degree with both theory and hands-on professional experience, and who are interested in how molecules, reactions, and life interconnect. | You study how Earth's physical systems — landforms, climate, water — interact with human societies, cultures, and economies. This program lets you choose between a standard degree or a co-op stream that embeds paid work terms into your studies. It suits students curious about environmental issues, cities, or global development who want both classroom learning and real-world experience. |

Ranges are what each university publishes, not guaranteed cutoffs, and limited-enrolment programs often admit above them. Confirm anything you are about to act on with the university; each column links to its source.
