What it is	Accounting is the study of how organizations record, manage, and report their money. You learn to prepare financial statements, handle taxes, audit records, and advise on business decisions based on financial data. This program includes mandatory co-op work terms, so you alternate between classroom learning and paid work at accounting firms or in corporate finance departments, giving you real experience before you graduate.	You study how chemicals and biological systems work together to solve real-world problems, learning biochemistry and chemical engineering side by side over five years. This dual degree goes deeper than choosing one field: you gain skills in both the science of living systems and the design of industrial processes. It suits people who want flexibility to work in pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, or chemical manufacturing, and who value alternating study terms with paid work placements through co-op.
