Prerequisitesas published	Current Ontario secondary school students must complete the Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD) with six 4U or 4M courses, including English (ENG4U). Alternative Offers If you do not meet the admission requirements, or we cannot accommodate your application, you may receive an offer to another closely related program.	In this concurrent program, graduates receive a Bachelor of Education as well as a Bachelor's degree in their chosen subject of major interest.

What it is	You study how education works — teaching methods, learning science, school systems, and the social side of how people learn — rather than training to teach in a classroom. This program includes co-op work terms where you gain real experience in schools and education settings alongside your coursework. It suits students curious about education as a field of study who want hands-on experience before deciding whether to pursue teaching, educational leadership, or other education-related careers.	This program lets you earn both a science degree and a teaching credential in four years, studying subjects like chemistry, physics, biology, or math alongside education theory and practice. Unlike a traditional separate degree followed by teacher training, you complete both simultaneously, so your science and teaching courses run in parallel from the start. It suits students who know they want to teach science in secondary school and want an integrated path that doesn't delay certification.	You study chemistry, physics, astronomy, or geology at an advanced level, choosing your focus after first year. This program includes a co-op option that lets you work for employers in research, industry, or government between school terms. It suits students who are curious about how matter, energy, and natural systems work and want both hands-on lab experience and real-world work placements.
