Your highest listed choice is considered first when you indicate more than 1 Brock program on your application. If you are not eligible for your first choice, your subsequent choices will be considered in your indicated order of preference. In most cases: If you apply to only 1 Brock program but do not qualify, you will be considered for an alternative or related program. If you apply but are not admitted to a co-op program, you will automatically be considered for the regular, non-co-op program.

What it is	Computing at Queen's covers the theory and practice of building software, managing information systems, and developing artificial intelligence. You'll study programming, algorithms, data structures, and mathematics that underpin these fields. The program includes a co-op option, letting you alternate between classroom and paid work terms at tech companies, which sets it apart from a standard degree and gives you real industry experience alongside your studies. It suits people who like solving problems with code and want hands-on exposure to how software gets built in actual workplaces.	You study how to design, build, and maintain software applications that run on phones and tablets. This program is more focused on mobile devices than a standard computer science degree, and includes mandatory co-op work terms where you apply your skills in real companies. It suits people who want hands-on experience combining programming with practical problem-solving in the mobile tech industry.	You study how to design, build, and maintain software systems and applications, from the coding and logic to the architecture that makes programs run. This program includes hands-on projects in artificial intelligence and computer engineering alongside core software development. The co-op placement is required, meaning you alternate between classroom terms and paid work terms at companies, giving you real workplace experience before you graduate.	This program teaches you to extract useful information from large datasets using mathematics, programming, and statistics. You'll study how to build and use artificial intelligence models, manage data systems, and apply these skills to real business and financial problems. The co-op component means you'll work in relevant jobs during your studies, alternating with classroom learning. It suits people who enjoy both math and problem-solving and want practical experience applying these skills before graduation.
