| What it is | You study science and law together in one integrated degree, rather than choosing one or the other. This combines courses in biology, chemistry, and physics with legal studies and criminology, giving you broad background in both fields. It suits people drawn to science who also want to understand law and regulation, or who are exploring whether a legal career in science-related areas appeals to them. | This program trains you to teach science — biology, chemistry, or computer science — at the middle and intermediate school levels in French-language schools. You earn your Bachelor of Science and teaching qualification simultaneously by combining science courses with education coursework, rather than studying science first and then adding teacher training afterward. It suits students who are fluent in French, strong in science, and committed to teaching younger students. | You study the science of living systems — cells, organisms, genetics, and disease — with flexible depth depending on which specialization you choose. The co-op option lets you alternate between classroom semesters and paid work terms at research labs, hospitals, or biotech companies, building real experience alongside your degree. This stream suits students drawn to biology and chemistry who want either a traditional path or the chance to test careers in health and life sciences before graduating. | Life Sciences is a broad study of how living things work, from individual cells and genetics to whole organisms and ecosystems. You'll choose a focus area like microbiology, human biology, genetics, or plant science, and take courses across biology, chemistry, and related fields. The co-op option lets you alternate study terms with paid work placements in research labs, hospitals, or biotech companies, 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.
