| What it is | You study how human activity shapes the natural world and how to address environmental problems through science, policy, and social change. This program combines natural sciences like biology and chemistry with social science perspectives, rather than focusing only on the pure science side. It suits students curious about climate, conservation, and sustainability who want flexibility to explore both the science and the policy angles. | You study chemistry alongside medical and biological sciences, learning how molecules, cells, and chemical processes work in living systems. This combines pure chemistry with applied health science rather than focusing only on one discipline. It suits students interested in understanding the chemical basis of medicine, pharmacology, or biochemistry without committing to a professional health program like medicine. | An Honours Science degree lets you study a science subject deeply — biology, chemistry, physics, computer science, or another physical science — and choose your own focus within it. Unlike a general science program, an Honours degree requires a concentrated major and typically includes a research or capstone component. The co-op option means you alternate between school terms and paid work placements in science-related jobs, which suits people who want real workplace experience alongside their degree. |

Same subject area and a similar published range, at a campus you have not got in the table yet.
Ranges are what each university publishes, not guaranteed cutoffs, and limited-enrolment programs often admit above them. Confirm anything you are about to act on with the university; each column links to its source.
