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	Geography is the study of Earth's physical systems (like climate and landforms) and human societies, plus the tools and methods to map and analyze them. This program includes a co-op placement, which means you'll alternate between classroom learning and paid work terms with employers in the field. It suits people interested in environmental issues, urban planning, resource management, or spatial analysis who want practical experience alongside their degree.	You study both human geography — how people organize societies, economies, and cultures across regions — and physical geography, which covers landforms, climate systems, and natural environments. This program includes a co-op option, meaning you can complete paid work terms with employers in government, nonprofits, or environmental organizations alongside your coursework. It suits students interested in understanding global issues from multiple angles, whether through social, economic, or environmental lenses.	You study physical sciences — chemistry, physics, geology, and environmental topics — with a focus on how they connect to human health and the living world. This stream emphasizes the intersection between earth and life sciences rather than pure physics or chemistry alone. The co-op option lets you do paid work terms at relevant employers alongside your degree. It suits students interested in environmental health, toxicology, or science careers that bridge the natural world and wellness.	Physical Sciences is a broad first-year program where you study foundational chemistry, physics, mathematics, and biology before choosing a specialization in second year. The co-op option means you alternate between study and paid work terms at companies or research labs, giving you real experience in your field. This program suits students who are strong in math and science but not yet certain which specific physical science direction — from astronomy to polymer chemistry — they want to pursue.
