| What it is | Artificial Intelligence Engineering teaches you how to design systems and machines that can learn and make decisions like humans do, combining computer hardware, software, and AI techniques. The co-op requirement means you alternate between classroom semesters and paid work terms at companies, so you build real engineering experience while studying. The Management option adds business and leadership courses alongside the engineering core. This program suits students who want hands-on engineering work with AI technology and value learning in a workplace setting. | You study how to design systems and structures that protect the environment and manage natural resources — combining biology, chemistry, civil engineering, and earth science. Unlike a general engineering program, this one focuses specifically on water treatment, waste management, air quality, and land remediation. It suits students who want to solve real environmental problems with engineering tools and are willing to do mandatory work terms alongside their studies. | A Bachelor of Arts and Sciences lets you combine study in both humanities and natural sciences within one degree. Unlike most programs that require you to choose either arts or sciences, this one lets you take courses across both — for instance, pairing creative writing with chemistry, or anthropology with animal science. It suits people who are curious across multiple disciplines and want flexibility rather than specializing narrowly from the start. |
