What it isYou study how cars and vehicles are designed, built, and manufactured, combining mechanical engineering with hands-on problem-solving. The co-op version requires you to complete paid work terms at engineering companies alongside your classroom learning, giving you real industry experience before you graduate. This program suits students who want practical engineering skills and are willing to extend their studies to fit in work semesters.You study mechanical engineering and computer science together over five years, combining courses in machine design, systems, and programming. Unlike separate degrees in each field, you learn how they integrate — for instance, designing machines controlled by software. The co-op requirement means you alternate between classroom and paid work terms in engineering or tech companies. This suits people drawn to both the physical and computational sides of building things.You study both music and computer science as a full double degree, earning separate BA and BSc credentials in five years instead of doing them sequentially. This combines technical programming and software skills with music theory, performance, composition, or musicology depending on your choices. It suits people who are genuinely strong in both fields and want depth in each rather than a minor, and who have the stamina for a demanding combined workload.

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.
