What it is	You study mathematics with applications to science and engineering problems — pure math combined with practical problem-solving in physics, chemistry, and biology. The BSc&Mgt option adds business and management courses, giving you both technical and organizational skills. The program includes mandatory co-op terms, so you work in industry alongside your studies, gaining real experience in research labs, tech companies, or engineering firms. This suits people who want deep mathematical skills but also want to see how those skills apply to actual scientific and technical work.	Science One is a general first-year science program that lets you explore multiple science disciplines — biology, chemistry, physics, computer science, and others — before committing to a specific major. Unlike entering directly into a single science program, you take a broader range of foundational courses to discover which field best suits you. It works well for students who are interested in science but unsure which specialization to pursue.	This program combines science courses with business studies, so you study both scientific subjects like chemistry, biology, or computer science alongside accounting, management, and economics. Unlike a straight science degree, you gain practical knowledge of how science-based industries operate and how to manage projects or companies. It suits students who want a science career but also care about the business side — whether that's starting a science company, managing research teams, or working in science-related industries.
