  • A combined minimum average of 70% is required for all prerequisite courses in mathematics.
  • Meeting these minimum requirements does not guarantee admission.
  • ENG4U
  • Two 4U maths (min. 75% in each)
  • Alternative Offers
  • You will receive an offer of admission to only 1 program. 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 isComputing 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 computer science and design together in a hands-on, project-based way rather than as separate subjects. The program emphasizes learning through real problems and experimentation, so you'll build working projects alongside traditional coursework. This suits people who want to understand how technology and design connect and prefer learning by doing.You study computer science and mathematics together as equally important subjects, rather than taking one as your main focus. This joint honours program lets you combine theoretical math with practical computing skills in ways a single-subject program cannot. It suits students who enjoy both fields and want to understand how mathematics powers computational problem-solving.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.
