What it is	Computer engineering combines the design of computer hardware with the software that runs on it. You'll study circuits, processors, programming, and systems that integrate both. The co-op stream lets you alternate between classroom and paid work terms at tech companies, giving you real industry experience alongside your degree, which sets it apart from the straight four-year option.	You study how to design and build computer systems, combining software and hardware engineering with applications like artificial intelligence. This program includes a mandatory co-op work term, giving you practical experience in industry while you study. It suits students who want hands-on problem-solving in computing and are willing to balance classroom learning with paid work semesters.	You study how the mind and body work together, and how social and environmental factors shape health. This program pairs psychology courses with practical training in areas like human biology, health policy, and social work. The co-op option lets you do paid work terms at healthcare or research settings alongside your studies. It suits people curious about mental health, public health, or how systems support people's wellbeing.
