| What it is | You study how to design outdoor spaces — parks, gardens, campuses, streetscapes — combining art, ecology, and practical building knowledge. Unlike general design programs, landscape architecture focuses specifically on outdoor environments and includes technical skills in grading, drainage, and site planning. It suits people who want to solve real problems through design and enjoy working both creatively and analytically with land and plants. | You study how to apply engineering and chemistry to solve biological and medical problems, like designing artificial organs, improving drug delivery, or creating medical devices. Unlike a general engineering program, this one focuses specifically on the life sciences side of engineering from the start. The co-op option lets you work terms at hospitals, biotech companies, or medical device manufacturers alongside your courses. This suits you if you're interested in both the technical side of engineering and direct work in healthcare or biotechnology. |

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.
