What you study	Artificial Intelligence Computer Engineering Software Engineering	Computer Science Education Studies Environmental Studies Mathematics	Astronomy Chemistry Environmental Studies Geology
What it is	You study how to design, build, and maintain software systems and applications, from the coding and logic to the architecture that makes programs run. This program includes hands-on projects in artificial intelligence and computer engineering alongside core software development. The co-op placement is required, meaning you alternate between classroom terms and paid work terms at companies, giving you real workplace experience before you graduate.	You complete a bachelor's degree in a science subject — like computer science, mathematics, environmental studies, or psychology — while simultaneously earning your Ontario teaching certification in intermediate and senior divisions. Unlike a regular science degree, you graduate ready to teach your subject in high schools without needing a separate education program afterward. This suits people who know they want to teach a science or math subject and want to combine their training efficiently.	Physical & Environmental Sciences is a degree where you study the natural world through disciplines like physics, chemistry, geology, astronomy, and environmental science. You choose which areas to focus on based on your interests. The co-op option lets you alternate study with paid work terms in science-related workplaces, giving you real experience alongside your classes. This program suits students who want to understand how Earth and space work and prefer hands-on learning combined with classroom study.
