What it is	You study how to use radiation safely and effectively to diagnose and treat disease, combining physics, biology, and medical technology. This program includes training in imaging techniques like X-rays and CT scans, as well as cancer treatment using radiation. It suits students who want hands-on work in healthcare, are comfortable with science and math, and are drawn to a clinical role rather than pure research.	You study the theory and practice of computing, from writing software and building systems to artificial intelligence and how businesses use technology. The co-op stream requires you to alternate between semesters of coursework and paid work terms at tech companies, giving you real workplace experience alongside your degree. This suits students who want hands-on industry exposure while learning, or who prefer the traditional full-time study path.	You study pure and applied mathematics, with courses ranging from algebra and calculus to artificial intelligence and data analysis. The co-op option means you alternate between study terms and paid work terms at companies or organizations, giving you real workplace experience alongside your degree. This program suits students who want strong mathematical foundations and are willing to structure their degree around multiple internships.
