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 business and law together in one integrated six-year program instead of pursuing them separately. You earn qualifications in both commercial sciences and law (Juris Doctor), which means you graduate ready to work in business law, corporate strategy, or general legal practice without taking law school as a separate step afterward. This suits people drawn to both business management and the legal system who want a faster path to combining those fields professionally.	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.
