What it isYou study chemistry and biochemistry alongside music performance or theory over five years, earning two degrees at once. Unlike a single major, you commit equal time to both fields, which means rigorous lab work and science courses paired with music ensemble, applied lessons, or composition. This suits students who have genuine strength and passion in both science and the arts, and want to pursue careers that might combine them or keep both paths open.This is a four-year science degree where you specialize in one of many fields — from chemistry and physics to biology, geology, audiology, linguistics, or environmental science. The honours designation means you go deeper into your chosen subject than a general science degree would. The program includes optional co-op work terms, letting you gain paid professional experience alongside your studies, which suits students who want both classroom learning and real workplace practice in their field.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.
