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 how chemicals and biological systems work together to solve real-world problems, learning biochemistry and chemical engineering side by side over five years. This dual degree goes deeper than choosing one field: you gain skills in both the science of living systems and the design of industrial processes. It suits people who want flexibility to work in pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, or chemical manufacturing, and who value alternating study terms with paid work placements through co-op.	This five-year program combines biotechnology and chemical engineering, so you study both how to manipulate living systems at the molecular level and how to design and scale up chemical processes. Unlike a straight biochemistry degree, you learn practical engineering skills for industrial production and apply them through mandatory co-op work terms. It suits students who want to bridge pure science and hands-on problem-solving in fields like pharmaceuticals, food processing, or biofuels.
