| What it is | Computer 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. | You study how to protect computer systems and networks from cyberattacks by learning programming, software design, and artificial intelligence techniques. Unlike a general computer science degree, this program is built around real-world security problems and includes a co-op work term, so you apply what you learn in actual jobs while still studying. It suits people who want hands-on technical experience and are interested in the growing field of protecting digital information. | You learn to design and code video games, combining programming skills with game design and storytelling. This program emphasizes building complete games from concept to finished product, rather than studying general computer science. It suits people who want to work in the game industry and have both technical problem-solving skills and creative ideas. | This is a broad science degree where you choose from fields like biology, chemistry, physics, computer science, geology, and others. You take foundational science courses in first year, then specialize by selecting which science subjects to focus on. Co-op is available, letting you do paid work terms at science-related employers alongside your studies. |
