What it is	This program teaches you how people think, behave, and interact — the science behind psychology. You'll study psychological theories and research methods alongside related fields like sociology and social work, giving you a broad understanding of human behaviour and society. It suits students curious about why people do what they do and interested in careers involving counselling, research, or social services.	This program combines a science degree with teacher training, so you earn both qualifications in four years instead of five. You choose a science major — such as computer science, mathematics, environmental studies, or psychology — and study it alongside education courses that prepare you to teach at the primary or junior elementary level. It suits students who know they want to teach science or math in elementary school and want to complete their training faster than the traditional separate-degree route.	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.
