| What it is | You study how to design and build software and computer systems, with options to specialize in game development. The co-op requirement means you complete paid work terms at tech companies alongside your classroom learning, giving you real industry experience before graduation. This program suits students who want hands-on technical training and the chance to build a professional network early in their degree. | You study psychology combined with applied health sciences — how human behaviour, biology, and social factors shape health and illness. Unlike a straight psychology program, this stream emphasizes practical health applications and the ability to work across healthcare and social systems. The co-op option lets you work in healthcare settings, clinics, or community agencies while studying. It suits students interested in both understanding the mind and applying that knowledge to real health problems. | Medical Sciences is a first-year foundation program in human biology and life sciences designed for students considering health professions like medicine, dentistry, or pharmacy. It covers anatomy, physiology, chemistry, and cell biology at university level. This program prepares you for competitive professional school applications while letting you explore whether medical training is right for you. | This program teaches you the science behind living systems — cells, genetics, microbes, and how drugs work in the body. You'll study biology and chemistry at a deeper level than in high school, with options to specialize in areas like biotechnology, pharmacology, or human health. It suits people curious about how organisms function and interested in careers in research, pharmaceuticals, healthcare, or environmental science. |

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.
