What it is	You study the theory and practice of building software, designing systems, and solving problems with computers. Carleton's program lets you focus on specializations like artificial intelligence, games, or software engineering, and includes a co-op stream where you alternate between classroom and paid work terms. This suits students who want hands-on industry experience alongside their degree and are interested in both the technical and applied sides of computing.	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.	A Bachelor of Science is a four-year degree where you study science subjects in depth. You choose a major like Computer Science, Environmental Studies, Mathematics, Physical Geography, or Psychology, and take courses across your field plus some complementary subjects. It suits students who want a broad science education and plan to work in research, industry, education, or graduate studies related to their major.
