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 use radiation safely and effectively to diagnose and treat disease, combining physics, biology, and medical technology. This program includes training in imaging techniques like X-rays and CT scans, as well as cancer treatment using radiation. It suits students who want hands-on work in healthcare, are comfortable with science and math, and are drawn to a clinical role rather than pure research.	You study both computer science and business administration as integrated degrees, not separate majors. This co-op stream requires you to alternate between classroom terms and paid work terms throughout your program, giving you applied experience in tech and business roles. It suits students who want technical depth and business acumen together, and who are willing to commit to a longer timeline that includes mandatory internships.
