| What it is | You study how Earth's physical systems — landforms, climate, water — interact with human societies, cultures, and economies. This program lets you choose between a standard degree or a co-op stream that embeds paid work terms into your studies. It suits students curious about environmental issues, cities, or global development who want both classroom learning and real-world experience. | You study how the natural world works alongside the human systems that affect it. The BES focuses on environmental policy, conservation, and sustainability through social and geographic lenses, while the BSc emphasizes the physical science side: geology, ecology, and environmental processes. Both paths suit people interested in solving real environmental problems through either policy and community work or scientific research and analysis. |

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.
