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.	Queen's Arts offers a broad, self-directed undergraduate degree spanning humanities, social sciences, and languages. You choose your own combination of subjects — from English and economics to classical studies and environmental issues — rather than following a set curriculum. The co-op option lets you alternate study terms with paid work placements in your field of interest, which suits students who want real-world experience alongside their degree and flexibility in how they structure their time.	In this program, you study an Arts subject — such as English, Economics, Drama, or Environmental Studies — while simultaneously earning your teaching qualification. Unlike a regular BA where you add teacher training after, you complete both degrees together over four years, so you graduate ready to teach your subject in Ontario schools. It suits students who know they want to teach a specific subject and want to combine their subject expertise with education training from the start.
