What it is	Chemistry is the study of matter, reactions, and molecular structure. The BSc focuses purely on chemistry and science, while the BSc&Mgt combines chemistry with business and management courses, suited for students interested in industry roles. Both programs include mandatory co-op work terms, giving you paid experience at chemical companies or research labs alongside your degree.	You study the natural systems that support life on Earth — combining biology, chemistry, geology, and geography to understand ecosystems, environmental problems, and how living things interact with their physical surroundings. This pathway is structured to integrate multiple science disciplines rather than focus narrowly on one, and it includes mandatory co-operative work terms where you apply classroom learning to real environmental jobs. It suits students curious about how nature works across scales, from molecules to landscapes, who want hands-on experience before deciding on a specific environmental career.

Ranges are what each university publishes, not guaranteed cutoffs, and limited-enrolment programs often admit above them. Confirm anything you are about to act on with the university; each column links to its source.
