What it is	You study both computer science and physics together, learning to code and build software alongside the theory and maths of how the physical world works. This combined degree lets you apply computational methods to physics problems rather than choosing one subject. It suits students curious about how computers can model and solve real-world physical phenomena.	You study the physics of stars, galaxies, and the universe using math, observation, and lab work. This program requires you to alternate between classroom semesters and paid work terms at companies or research institutions, giving you real experience in the field. It suits students who want hands-on learning alongside theory and are willing to extend their degree by a year for the work placements.	You study physical sciences — chemistry, physics, geology, and environmental topics — with a focus on how they connect to human health and the living world. This stream emphasizes the intersection between earth and life sciences rather than pure physics or chemistry alone. The co-op option lets you do paid work terms at relevant employers alongside your degree. It suits students interested in environmental health, toxicology, or science careers that bridge the natural world and wellness.
