What it is	Data Science focuses on collecting, analyzing, and interpreting large amounts of data to solve real-world problems using statistics, mathematics, and computer programming. The BSc&Mgt variant adds business courses alongside the technical ones, preparing you for leadership roles in data-driven organizations. This program suits people who enjoy both math and computers, want hands-on problem-solving skills, and appreciate learning how to turn raw data into decisions.	You study pure mathematics and statistical analysis — everything from algebra and calculus to probability and data methods. This program includes optional co-op terms where you work in industry or research settings alongside your studies, giving you real experience before graduation. It suits people who want deep technical skills in mathematics or statistics and prefer learning through a mix of classroom theory and workplace application.	A Bachelor of Science is a four-year degree where you study science subjects in depth. You choose a major like Computer Science, Environmental Studies, Mathematics, Physical Geography, or Psychology, and take courses across your field plus some complementary subjects. It suits students who want a broad science education and plan to work in research, industry, education, or graduate studies related to their major.	You earn two degrees at once: one in science (you pick a major like biology, computer science, or data science) and one in commerce (business and economics). This combined program lets you graduate with credentials in both fields rather than choosing one or the other. It suits students who want scientific or technical expertise plus business knowledge for careers that need both, like environmental consulting, tech entrepreneurship, or data analysis in industry.
