What it isA Chemistry program teaches you how matter behaves, how substances react and transform, and the principles underlying everything from medicines to materials. You'll study atomic structure, chemical reactions, and analytical techniques through labs and lectures. This co-op option lets you alternate between classroom semesters and paid work terms at chemistry-related employers, building real experience while earning.This is a four-year science degree where you specialize in one of many fields — from chemistry and physics to biology, geology, audiology, linguistics, or environmental science. The honours designation means you go deeper into your chosen subject than a general science degree would. The program includes optional co-op work terms, letting you gain paid professional experience alongside your studies, which suits students who want both classroom learning and real workplace practice in their field.
