What it isYou 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.You study how to use technology and information systems to solve business problems and manage operations in organizations. This program combines business knowledge with hands-on IT skills, unlike a pure computer science degree or a general business program. It suits people who want to work in technology roles within companies but prefer understanding business strategy alongside the technical side, and the co-op term gives you real workplace experience.Life Sciences is a broad study of how living things work, from individual cells and genetics to whole organisms and ecosystems. You'll choose a focus area like microbiology, human biology, genetics, or plant science, and take courses across biology, chemistry, and related fields. The co-op option lets you alternate study terms with paid work placements in research labs, hospitals, or biotech companies, giving you real experience alongside your degree.
