What it is	You study the science of matter, energy, forces, and motion — how things work at every scale, from tiny atoms to galaxies. Physics at Trent gives you a grounding in theory through lectures and labs, preparing you for further study or work in fields like engineering, environmental science, or research. It suits people who are curious about how the natural world operates and comfortable with mathematics.	You study computer science and mathematics together, learning to solve problems by combining coding skills with advanced mathematical theory. Unlike a regular computer science program, you're required to complete paid work terms with employers throughout your degree, giving you real professional experience alongside your studies. This suits students who want technical depth, enjoy both abstract math and practical programming, and prefer to earn money and build their resume while studying.	This program lets you earn both an arts degree and a teaching qualification at the same time, typically in four years. You choose a subject to study deeply (like English, history, or math) while taking education courses that prepare you to teach junior and intermediate grades. It suits students who know they want to teach and want to combine subject expertise with classroom training from the start, rather than doing them separately.
