What it is	Interior design teaches you to plan and furnish indoor spaces — homes, offices, shops, restaurants — combining aesthetics, function, and building codes. You'll learn design software, materials, colour theory, and how to work with clients and contractors. The co-op component means you alternate between classroom semesters and paid work terms in design firms, giving you real workplace experience before you graduate.	You study both music and computer science as a full double degree, earning separate BA and BSc credentials in five years instead of doing them sequentially. This combines technical programming and software skills with music theory, performance, composition, or musicology depending on your choices. It suits people who are genuinely strong in both fields and want depth in each rather than a minor, and who have the stamina for a demanding combined workload.	You study computer science and design together in a hands-on, project-based way rather than as separate subjects. The program emphasizes learning through real problems and experimentation, so you'll build working projects alongside traditional coursework. This suits people who want to understand how technology and design connect and prefer learning by doing.
