What you study	Electronic & Electrical Engineering Interdisciplinary StudiesOthers in Technology	Animal Science Biological Sciences Biotechnology Genetics
What it is	You study both electrical engineering and computing technology as a single five-year program, combining advanced circuits, power systems, and computer hardware design. Unlike a standard engineering degree, you graduate with two Bachelor degrees and complete paid work terms with employers throughout your studies, giving you real workplace experience alongside classroom learning. This suits students who want broad technical skills in electricity and computing, value hands-on experience, and are willing to commit to a longer, structured program.	You study the science of living things — from individual cells and genes to entire ecosystems and animal behaviour. The Environmental Science degree focuses on how organisms interact with their environment, while other options let you specialize in animal biology, plants, genetics, or microbiology. This program suits people curious about how life works and interested in careers ranging from conservation and wildlife management to research, teaching, or health sciences.
