| What it is | You study how living cells work at the molecular level and how to use that knowledge to develop new medicines, materials, and industrial processes. This program combines pure chemistry with applied biotechnology, so you spend time both in theory and on practical applications that companies actually use. It includes a required co-op work term, giving you real workplace experience alongside your coursework. This suits students who want hands-on lab work and are curious about bridging basic science with real-world problem-solving. | You study how to design, build, and maintain software systems and applications, from the coding and logic to the architecture that makes programs run. This program includes hands-on projects in artificial intelligence and computer engineering alongside core software development. The co-op placement is required, meaning you alternate between classroom terms and paid work terms at companies, giving you real workplace experience before you graduate. | You study how to design, build, and troubleshoot electrical systems and devices, from power grids to circuits in phones and computers. This program includes a co-op option that lets you work in industry while you study, giving you hands-on experience alongside classroom learning. It suits you if you like physics and math, want to solve practical problems with electricity and electronics, and value real-world work experience. |
