| What it is | Engineering Science is a broad engineering program where you study math, physics, and engineering fundamentals before specializing in areas like aerospace, electrical, biotechnology, or general engineering. Unlike traditional engineering programs that lock you into one specialty from year one, this lets you explore multiple fields before choosing your focus. It suits students who are strong in math and science but unsure which engineering discipline fits them best, and who want optional paid work experience integrated into their degree. | You study business and mathematics together as one integrated degree, rather than as two separate majors. The program requires stronger math entry grades than a typical BBA and includes mandatory co-op work terms where you alternate between classroom and paid work in finance, analytics, or related roles. This suits students who want quantitative skills for careers in data analysis, financial modelling, or actuarial work alongside business fundamentals. |

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.
