| What it is | Earth Sciences is the study of rocks, minerals, landforms, and the physical processes that shape the planet. You'll learn geology — how Earth's crust forms and changes — alongside physical geography, which focuses on climate, water systems, and landscapes. This program includes a co-op work term, giving you hands-on experience in the field or with industry partners. | A BA in Geography covers the physical Earth — landforms, climate, ecosystems — alongside human systems like culture, economics, and cities. You'll study both natural processes and how people shape and live in different places. It suits students curious about why the world works the way it does and interested in solving real-world problems across environment and society. | You study an arts subject like English, history, or mathematics alongside teacher training designed for elementary and early middle school classrooms. You complete both a bachelor's degree and teaching credentials in four years instead of five, combining academic courses with education theory and practice teaching. This suits students certain they want to teach their subject to younger students and want to finish their degree and teaching qualification together. |
