What it isYou study pure and applied mathematics — algebra, calculus, geometry, and how to solve real problems with math. The co-op stream lets you alternate between classroom learning and paid work terms at companies or research labs, giving you practical experience alongside theory. This suits people who want to test whether they prefer pure mathematics, data work, or applied roles in industry before committing to a specialization.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.Smith Engineering's common first year means you take the same core courses as all engineering students — math, physics, chemistry, and engineering fundamentals — before choosing a specialization like mechanical, civil, chemical, or aerospace engineering in second year. This delays your choice, letting you explore different engineering fields before committing. It suits students who know they want engineering but are unsure which branch fits them best.Engineering at Western teaches you to design and build solutions to practical problems using mathematics, science, and materials. You choose a specialization like software, mechanical, civil, or chemical engineering, or study general engineering first before deciding. The program includes co-op work terms, so you alternate between classes and paid jobs with employers, giving you real experience alongside your degree.

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.
