| What it is | You study the properties of matter, chemical reactions, and how substances interact at the molecular level. The co-op option lets you alternate between classroom learning and paid work terms at chemical companies or research labs, giving you real experience alongside your degree. This suits students who want hands-on industry exposure early and are ready to plan their schedule around work semesters. | You study rocks, minerals, earth processes, and how the physical environment works. Geology sits at the overlap of physics, chemistry, and biology, focusing on how Earth's materials form, change, and interact. This program suits people curious about natural resources, environmental problems, or how the planet works at a fundamental level. |

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.
