What it is	Chemical physics is the study of how chemicals behave and change using the tools and ideas of physics. You'll learn quantum mechanics, thermodynamics, and spectroscopy alongside traditional chemistry, focusing on the atomic and molecular level rather than large-scale reactions. This program suits you if you're strong in both math and science and want to understand the physical principles underlying chemistry rather than just memorizing reactions.	You study chemistry and physics together in a single integrated program rather than choosing one as your major. This approach lets you build skills in both disciplines and see how they connect, rather than specializing early. It suits students curious about how the physical world works at multiple scales and comfortable with mathematical reasoning in both fields.	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.

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.
