  • Strongly recommended subjects for those wishing to attend NEOMA Business School in France: FSF4U, FEF4U or FIF4U
  • Alternative Offers
  • You will receive an offer of admission to only 1 program. Your highest listed choice is considered first when you indicate more than 1 Brock program on your application. If you are not eligible for your first choice, your subsequent choices will be considered in your indicated order of preference. In most cases: If you apply to only 1 Brock program but do not qualify, you will be considered for an alternative or related program. If you apply but are not admitted to a co-op program, you will automatically be considered for the regular, non co-op program.

What it isA program in which you study how to design, build, and maintain software and computer systems. The BCS degree focuses more on the theory and mathematics behind computing, while the BA allows you to combine computer science with other subjects. Both paths prepare you for software development, systems design, or related technical roles, and include paid work terms through co-op so you gain real experience while studying.You study how to design, build, and maintain large software systems using engineering principles and mathematics. This co-op stream requires you to alternate between classroom terms and paid work terms in industry, giving you real project experience alongside your degree. It suits people who want hands-on experience, enjoy problem-solving with code, and are ready to balance school with regular full-time work placements.You study business management and related fields like accounting, human resources, or entrepreneurship while alternating between classroom terms and paid work terms with employers. This co-op structure means you graduate with real workplace experience alongside your degree. The dual degree option lets you complete part of your studies at a partner institution abroad, typically NEOMA Business School in France, combining international education with Canadian credentials. This suits students who want hands-on business experience, practical skills, and potentially a global perspective before entering the workforce.You study the theory and practice of computing, from writing software and building systems to artificial intelligence and how businesses use technology. The co-op stream requires you to alternate between semesters of coursework and paid work terms at tech companies, giving you real workplace experience alongside your degree. This suits students who want hands-on industry exposure while learning, or who prefer the traditional full-time study path.
