What it is	You earn both a Bachelor of Arts and a Bachelor of Science by studying music and geology together over five years. Rather than choosing one subject, you take courses in both fields in parallel, completing the full degree requirements for each. This program suits students genuinely interested in both disciplines who want depth in two very different areas rather than a traditional major-minor split.	You study the structure, composition, and processes of the Earth's rocky layers and landscapes, combining geology with physics and geography. Physical geology focuses on how rocks form, break down, and move, rather than on finding mineral deposits or fossils. The co-op option lets you do paid work terms with industry or research employers alongside your studies, giving you real experience in the field.
