What it isYou 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.You study the science of living things — from individual cells and genes to entire ecosystems and animal behaviour. The Environmental Science degree focuses on how organisms interact with their environment, while other options let you specialize in animal biology, plants, genetics, or microbiology. This program suits people curious about how life works and interested in careers ranging from conservation and wildlife management to research, teaching, or health sciences.
