| What it is | You study how to design, build, and test software systems — the programs and applications that run on computers and devices. This program combines hands-on coding and engineering theory, and requires you to do paid work terms with real companies throughout your degree, so you graduate with professional experience alongside your training. It suits people who want to solve problems with code and are ready to balance classroom learning with actual software development jobs. | You study how to design and build solutions to environmental problems using engineering tools and methods. This program combines traditional engineering disciplines like civil and mining with environmental science, so you learn both the technical skills and the ecological knowledge needed to tackle issues like water quality, land use, and resource extraction. It suits people who want to solve real-world environmental challenges through hands-on engineering work rather than pure science or policy analysis, and the built-in co-op terms let you test that fit in actual workplaces. | Environmental Engineering combines math, chemistry, physics, and biology to solve real-world problems like water treatment, air quality, and waste management. Unlike a pure science degree, you learn engineering design and practical problem-solving alongside the science fundamentals. The program includes mandatory co-op work terms, so you gain industry experience while studying. This suits students who want to apply science to environmental challenges and prefer hands-on learning alongside classroom work. |

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.
