| What it is | Accounting teaches you how to record, analyze, and report on money flowing in and out of businesses and organizations. This co-op program includes paid work terms where you apply what you learn in real accounting roles, alternating with classroom study. It suits people who want practical experience alongside theory and are comfortable switching between school and work. | You study how to design, build, and maintain software and computer systems. This program covers programming languages, algorithms, data structures, and how computers work at a fundamental level. If you choose the co-op stream, you'll alternate between studying and working at tech companies, giving you real professional experience alongside your degree. | This program teaches you to design, build, and maintain automated systems that control machines and processes in factories, utilities, and other industries. Unlike a general engineering degree, it focuses specifically on the practical skills and hands-on work needed to implement automation rather than the deep theory behind it. It suits students who want to solve real problems with machinery and electronics and prefer learning by doing alongside classroom study. |
