| What it is | Computer Engineering teaches you to design and build computing systems, from the hardware circuits inside devices to the software that runs on them. Unlike pure computer science programs, you study electrical engineering alongside programming, so you learn how computers actually work at a physical level. The co-op option lets you alternate between classroom terms and paid work terms at tech companies, giving you real industry experience. This program suits people who want hands-on problem-solving across both hardware and software, and who value learning through workplace projects. | Humanities is the study of human culture, history, ideas, and expression through subjects like history, philosophy, literature, classics, and religious studies. You choose courses across these fields rather than specializing in just one, so you develop a broad understanding of how societies, texts, and beliefs have shaped each other over time. This suits people curious about why humans think and act as they do, who enjoy reading and discussion, and who want flexibility to explore before narrowing down. | You study journalism alongside humanities subjects like history, philosophy, classical studies, and literature. This combines newsroom skills and reporting practice with deep reading and critical thinking across human culture and ideas, rather than journalism alone. It suits people who want to write and investigate for publication but also care about understanding context, meaning, and the bigger picture behind the stories. |

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.
