| What it is | Computer Science at Western teaches you how to write programs, build software systems, and solve problems using computers and code. You choose a focus — such as game development, managing information systems, or engineering robust software — based on your interests. The program includes paid work terms alongside your studies, letting you apply classroom learning in real jobs and build professional experience before you graduate. | You study how governments, economies, and organizations actually work together, combining business management with political and economic analysis. Unlike a straight business degree, this program integrates policy and political systems into your core learning. The co-op option means you alternate between classroom terms and paid work terms at real employers, letting you test what you learn in actual jobs. It suits people who want business skills but also care about how policy and politics shape markets and management. |

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.
