| What it is | Civil engineering teaches you how to design, build, and maintain infrastructure like bridges, roads, dams, and water systems. You'll study structural mechanics, materials, surveying, and environmental impact alongside math and physics. This program includes a mandatory co-op placement, so you'll work on real projects while you study, which suits people who learn best by doing and want practical experience before graduation. | You study both civil engineering and computer science in one five-year program, combining the design of infrastructure like bridges and buildings with software and programming skills. Unlike separate degrees in each field, this double program integrates both disciplines so you learn how they apply together in modern construction and engineering projects. It suits students who want broad technical skills and are willing to commit five years to gain expertise across two engineering areas. | You study computer science and mathematics together as equally important subjects, rather than taking one as your main focus. This joint honours program lets you combine theoretical math with practical computing skills in ways a single-subject program cannot. It suits students who enjoy both fields and want to understand how mathematics powers computational problem-solving. |

Ranges are what each university publishes, not guaranteed cutoffs, and limited-enrolment programs often admit above them. Confirm anything you are about to act on with the university; each column links to its source.
