| What it is | You study how to design and build solutions to environmental problems using engineering tools and methods. This program combines traditional engineering disciplines like civil and mining with environmental science, so you learn both the technical skills and the ecological knowledge needed to tackle issues like water quality, land use, and resource extraction. It suits people who want to solve real-world environmental challenges through hands-on engineering work rather than pure science or policy analysis, and the built-in co-op terms let you test that fit in actual workplaces. | Health Sciences is a broad program where you study how human health works, from biology and chemistry to technology and data systems used in medicine and healthcare. It's wider than a specialized nursing or medical lab program because you explore multiple health-related fields rather than training for one specific healthcare job. It suits students curious about science and health who want options to specialize later or move toward healthcare careers beyond direct patient care. | Biomedical mechanical engineering combines mechanical engineering with biology and medicine, teaching you to design and build medical devices, prosthetics, and equipment that work inside or on the human body. Unlike a standard mechanical engineering program, this one integrates life sciences throughout, so you learn how human anatomy and physiology affect your designs. It suits students who want engineering problem-solving skills but are drawn to healthcare applications and want direct experience through paid work terms. |

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.
