| What it is | You study how to manage environmental problems using science, business, and planning tools — combining ecology, land use, and sustainability practices. This program requires a co-op work term, meaning you alternate between classroom and paid work placements in environmental roles, giving you real-world experience alongside your degree. It suits people who want to protect natural systems but also understand budgets, policy, and how organizations actually operate. | This program teaches you how living organisms work at the molecular and cellular level, focusing on chemistry, genetics, and biochemistry. Unlike a general biology degree, it emphasizes the chemical mechanisms that drive life processes. It suits students who want hands-on lab work and the option to do internships alongside their studies, and who are comfortable with chemistry and math. | This program trains you to teach science — biology, chemistry, or computer science — at the middle and intermediate school levels in French-language schools. You earn your Bachelor of Science and teaching qualification simultaneously by combining science courses with education coursework, rather than studying science first and then adding teacher training afterward. It suits students who are fluent in French, strong in science, and committed to teaching younger students. |

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.
