What you study	Education Studies Music	Artificial Intelligence Economics Education Studies Entrepreneurship
What it is	You study teaching methods and music theory, performance, and history together, so you graduate ready to teach music in schools. Unlike a regular music degree, this program embeds education training throughout, meaning you spend time in actual classrooms during your studies rather than adding it on afterward. It suits people who want to perform and teach music, or who know they want a teaching career but don't want to study music and education completely separately.	You study pure and applied mathematics, with courses ranging from algebra and calculus to artificial intelligence and data analysis. The co-op option means you alternate between study terms and paid work terms at companies or organizations, giving you real workplace experience alongside your degree. This program suits students who want strong mathematical foundations and are willing to structure their degree around multiple internships.
