What you studyHospitality, Recreation and LeisureHuman BiologySport & Exercise Science
What it isComputer 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.This four-year program teaches you how to manage recreation facilities, sports programs, and leisure services. You study exercise science, human biology, and business skills needed to run gyms, community centres, sports leagues, or tourism operations. It suits people who want to work in the sports and recreation industry but prefer management and planning over personal training or athletic competition.
