What it isYou study pure mathematics and statistical analysis — everything from algebra and calculus to probability and data methods. This program includes optional co-op terms where you work in industry or research settings alongside your studies, giving you real experience before graduation. It suits people who want deep technical skills in mathematics or statistics and prefer learning through a mix of classroom theory and workplace application.Humanities I is your first year of study in the liberal arts, where you explore human culture, language, history, and society through subjects like English, history, drama, and linguistics. You take a range of courses across these fields to discover what interests you before specializing in a particular discipline in later years. This suits students who are curious about how people think, communicate, and organize themselves, but aren't yet certain which humanities subject to focus on.
