What it is	This program teaches you business fundamentals—accounting, management, marketing, and economics—while requiring you to complete paid work terms alongside your studies. The co-op requirement means you'll alternate between semesters of coursework and semesters working in actual business roles, giving you real workplace experience before you graduate. It suits people who learn by doing and want to test career interests in business while earning money and building a professional network.	You study engineering and health sciences together, focusing on how biology and chemistry apply to medical devices, treatments, and health problems. Unlike a standard engineering program, you're embedded in health sciences from day one, and you'll do paid work terms in hospitals, biotech companies, or medical device firms. This suits people who want to solve real health challenges through technology but aren't sure yet whether they prefer the engineering or health science side.
