What it isComputer Science is the study of how to design, build, and understand software and computer systems. At Ontario Tech, you can choose between a straight science degree or combine it with management courses, which prepares you for roles where you lead tech projects or teams. The program includes a co-op component, giving you paid work terms at companies alongside your classes, which suits students who want real experience before graduating.This is a four-year degree in computer science, covering artificial intelligence, software engineering, and core programming concepts. You can choose to add a co-op stream, which means you work semesters at tech companies alongside your studies, building real workplace experience. It suits people who want to learn software development with the option to gain paid industry work experience before graduating.This program trains you to teach science — biology, chemistry, or computer science — at the middle and intermediate school levels in French-language schools. You earn your Bachelor of Science and teaching qualification simultaneously by combining science courses with education coursework, rather than studying science first and then adding teacher training afterward. It suits students who are fluent in French, strong in science, and committed to teaching younger students.
