Your highest listed choice is considered first when you indicate more than 1 Brock program on your application. If you are not eligible for your first choice, your subsequent choices will be considered in your indicated order of preference. In most cases: If you apply to only 1 Brock program but do not qualify, you will be considered for an alternative or related program. If you apply but are not admitted to a co-op program, you will automatically be considered for the regular, non-co-op program.

What it is	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 to extract useful information from large datasets using mathematics, programming, and statistics. You'll study how to build and use artificial intelligence models, manage data systems, and apply these skills to real business and financial problems. The co-op component means you'll work in relevant jobs during your studies, alternating with classroom learning. It suits people who enjoy both math and problem-solving and want practical experience applying these skills before graduation.	You study the mathematics and statistics behind financial decisions — how to model risk, value investments, and analyze market data. Unlike a straight finance degree, this program embeds serious calculus and advanced math, and a straight math degree, it applies those tools to real financial problems. It suits people comfortable with numbers who want to work in banking, insurance, investment firms, or data roles in finance.
