What you study	Artificial Intelligence Computer Science Entrepreneurship Information Systems	Health Informatics Human Biology Medical Technology	Artificial Intelligence Computer Games Computer Science Health Informatics
What it is	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.	You study how to use radiation safely and effectively to diagnose and treat disease, combining physics, biology, and medical technology. This program includes training in imaging techniques like X-rays and CT scans, as well as cancer treatment using radiation. It suits students who want hands-on work in healthcare, are comfortable with science and math, and are drawn to a clinical role rather than pure research.	You study the design, development, and theory behind computer software and systems. In the co-op stream, you alternate between classroom terms and paid work terms at tech companies, giving you practical experience alongside your degree. This program suits people who want to build real-world coding skills early and explore whether they prefer software development, artificial intelligence, games, or other computing specializations while earning money.
