| What it is | Computer Science is the study of how to design, build, and improve software and the systems that run it. You learn programming languages, algorithms, data structures, and problem-solving techniques that apply across industries. This program includes a mandatory co-op work term, so you spend time applying what you learn in real jobs alongside classroom study, which sets it apart from a straight academic stream. | You study how to design and operate industrial processes that transform raw materials into useful products, with a focus on chemistry, environmental impact, and metals. This program includes a mandatory work-study component where you alternate between classroom terms and paid job placements in engineering firms. It suits students strong in math and science who want hands-on experience and prefer learning through real workplace projects alongside theory. | This program teaches you how to create digital content across animation, game design, and visual media. Unlike a pure computer science degree, it balances technical skills with creative and design thinking. It suits people who want to build things that people see and interact with, rather than work mainly on backend systems or theory. | You study the science and engineering of nuclear power generation, reactor design, radiation safety, and fuel cycles. The BEng&Mgt version adds business and management coursework so you can move into supervisory or project roles, whereas the standard BEng focuses purely on the technical side. This program suits people drawn to large-scale energy problems who are comfortable with advanced math and physics and want hands-on workplace experience through co-op placements. |
