What it is	You study pure and applied mathematics: algebra, calculus, geometry, logic, and problem-solving with numbers and abstract structures. The BA leans toward theory and breadth across disciplines; the BSc goes deeper into mathematics itself and how it connects to physics and science. The co-op option lets you work terms in industry, education, or research alongside your classes, which suits people who want real-world experience or need to test whether they prefer theory or applied work.	You study the mathematical and programming foundations of artificial intelligence and data analysis, including how to build systems that learn from large datasets and make predictions. This program goes deeper into AI and statistics than a general computer science degree. It suits people who want to work with machine learning, data analysis, or AI systems and are comfortable with both math and coding.	A Bachelor of Science is a four-year degree where you study science subjects in depth. You choose a major like Computer Science, Environmental Studies, Mathematics, Physical Geography, or Psychology, and take courses across your field plus some complementary subjects. It suits students who want a broad science education and plan to work in research, industry, education, or graduate studies related to their major.	This program combines a science degree with teacher training, so you earn both qualifications in four years instead of five. You choose a science major — such as computer science, mathematics, environmental studies, or psychology — and study it alongside education courses that prepare you to teach at the primary or junior elementary level. It suits students who know they want to teach science or math in elementary school and want to complete their training faster than the traditional separate-degree route.
