Your highest listed choice is considered first when you indicate more than 1 Brock program on your application. If you are not eligible for your first choice, your subsequent choices will be considered in your indicated order of preference. In most cases: If you apply to only 1 Brock program but do not qualify, you will be considered for an alternative or related program. If you apply but are not admitted to a co-op program, you will automatically be considered for the regular, non co-op program.

What it is	Computer Science at Brock is a four-year degree where you study programming, algorithms, software design, and computing theory. The co-op option means you alternate between semesters of study and paid work terms at tech companies, giving you real workplace experience alongside your coursework. It suits people who want technical depth and prefer learning through hands-on projects and industry internships.	This program combines electrical engineering with computer science, so you study both how to design electrical systems and how to write software that controls them. Unlike a single engineering degree, you earn two degrees in five years by taking courses in both fields simultaneously. It suits students who want flexibility across hardware and software rather than committing to just one discipline, and who are willing to spread their study over an extra year to do both.	This five-year program combines biotechnology and chemical engineering, so you study both how to manipulate living systems at the molecular level and how to design and scale up chemical processes. Unlike a straight biochemistry degree, you learn practical engineering skills for industrial production and apply them through mandatory co-op work terms. It suits students who want to bridge pure science and hands-on problem-solving in fields like pharmaceuticals, food processing, or biofuels.	This is a four-year science degree where you specialize in one of many fields — from chemistry and physics to biology, geology, audiology, linguistics, or environmental science. The honours designation means you go deeper into your chosen subject than a general science degree would. The program includes optional co-op work terms, letting you gain paid professional experience alongside your studies, which suits students who want both classroom learning and real workplace practice in their field.
