Prerequisitesas published	Any Grade 12 U English (minimum final grade of 70% is required)	ENG4U Alternative Offers You will receive an offer of admission to only 1 program. Your highest listed choice is considered first when you indicate more than 1 Brock program on your application. If you are not eligible for your first choice, your subsequent choices will be considered in your indicated order of preference. In most cases: If you apply to only 1 Brock program but do not qualify, you will be considered for an alternative or related program. If you apply but are not admitted to a co-op program, you will automatically be considered for the regular, non-co-op program.

What it is	This program combines environmental science, geography, and business thinking to explore how people use and sustain natural resources. Unlike a pure environmental science degree, it emphasizes the economic and entrepreneurial side of solving environmental problems, and includes mandatory work terms where you apply what you learn in real jobs. It suits people who care about the environment but want practical business and policy skills alongside scientific understanding.	Geography is the study of Earth's physical systems — landforms, climate, water — and how humans interact with their environment and each other across space. You'll combine field research, data analysis using mapping technology, and social analysis to understand everything from urban development to environmental change. This program includes a co-op work term, giving you paid workplace experience alongside your studies.	You study how to design and build solutions to environmental problems using engineering tools and methods. This program combines traditional engineering disciplines like civil and mining with environmental science, so you learn both the technical skills and the ecological knowledge needed to tackle issues like water quality, land use, and resource extraction. It suits people who want to solve real-world environmental challenges through hands-on engineering work rather than pure science or policy analysis, and the built-in co-op terms let you test that fit in actual workplaces.
