What you study	Computer Games Computer Science	Computer Science Education Studies Environmental Studies Mathematics
What it is	You study how to design and build video games, combining computer science with creative and artistic skills. Unlike a straight computer science degree, this program teaches both the technical coding side and the creative tools and design methods used in game development. It suits people who want to work in the games industry but need solid programming foundations as much as they need artistic or design ability.	You complete a bachelor's degree in a science subject — like computer science, mathematics, environmental studies, or psychology — while simultaneously earning your Ontario teaching certification in intermediate and senior divisions. Unlike a regular science degree, you graduate ready to teach your subject in high schools without needing a separate education program afterward. This suits people who know they want to teach a science or math subject and want to combine their training efficiently.
