| What it is | Industrial engineering teaches you how to design and improve systems that make things or deliver services — factories, hospitals, supply chains. Unlike civil engineering, which focuses on building infrastructure, or materials science, which studies what things are made of, industrial engineering optimizes how people, machines, and processes work together. The program includes a co-op component, so you'll do paid work terms at companies alongside your studies. It suits people who like math and science, enjoy solving practical problems, and want hands-on experience before graduating. | This program lets you study science broadly — chemistry, physics, biology, materials science, and related fields — at university level. Unlike a specialized honours program in a single science, this one gives you flexibility to explore multiple areas before focusing deeper. The co-op option lets you alternate study terms with paid work in science-related industries. It suits students who are strong in math and sciences but not yet sure which direction to specialize in, or who want practical work experience alongside their degree. |

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.
