What it isYou study how the human body moves and functions during physical activity and exercise. This combines biology, anatomy, and sports science to understand muscles, joints, and fitness rather than just coaching or athletic training. The program includes a co-op work term, giving you practical experience in settings like rehabilitation clinics, fitness facilities, or sports medicine. This suits people interested in exercise science, health, or athletic performance who want both classroom learning and hands-on experience.This program combines science courses with business studies, so you study both scientific subjects like chemistry, biology, or computer science alongside accounting, management, and economics. Unlike a straight science degree, you gain practical knowledge of how science-based industries operate and how to manage projects or companies. It suits students who want a science career but also care about the business side — whether that's starting a science company, managing research teams, or working in science-related industries.This program combines science study with teacher education, so you earn qualifications to teach science in secondary school while completing your degree. Unlike a regular science degree followed by teacher training, you work toward both goals at the same time, with coursework in science disciplines alongside education theory and practice teaching. It suits students who know they want to teach and want to study science deeply rather than broadly.

Ranges are what each university publishes, not guaranteed cutoffs, and limited-enrolment programs often admit above them. Confirm anything you are about to act on with the university; each column links to its source.
