| What it is | Environmental Science is the study of how living things, ecosystems, and physical systems like weather and geology interact with human activity. You'll combine biology, chemistry, geography, and environmental policy to understand problems like pollution, climate change, and resource management. The co-op option lets you do paid work terms at environmental organizations or agencies alongside your studies, giving you real workplace experience before you graduate. | 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.
