What it is	You study chemistry at the university level, learning how atoms and molecules work, react, and form substances. This program lets you do paid work terms at companies and labs alongside your courses, giving you real workplace experience in chemistry fields before you graduate. It suits students who want hands-on learning and a chance to explore whether chemistry research, industry work, or another science career appeals to them.	This is a broad science degree where you choose from fields like biology, chemistry, physics, computer science, geology, and others. You take foundational science courses in first year, then specialize by selecting which science subjects to focus on. Co-op is available, letting you do paid work terms at science-related employers alongside your studies.	You study the science of living things — from individual cells and genes to entire ecosystems and animal behaviour. The Environmental Science degree focuses on how organisms interact with their environment, while other options let you specialize in animal biology, plants, genetics, or microbiology. This program suits people curious about how life works and interested in careers ranging from conservation and wildlife management to research, teaching, or health sciences.
