What it is	You study how to design and plan buildings and structures, learning both the creative design side and the technical skills needed to make buildings work safely and function well. This program requires you to do paid work terms at architecture firms throughout your degree, alternating with school semesters, so you graduate with real professional experience. It suits people who want hands-on learning alongside theory and are ready to balance intensive coursework with workplace responsibility.	You study how to design and restore buildings while minimizing environmental impact, combining architecture, history, and ecological design. This program emphasizes conservation of existing structures and sustainable materials and methods, setting it apart from general architecture programs that focus mainly on new construction. It suits students interested in heritage preservation and green building who want hands-on experience through co-op placements.	You study the fundamentals of running a business: accounting, finance, human resources, and strategy, along with emerging areas like artificial intelligence and entrepreneurship. This co-op program alternates classroom learning with paid work terms at real companies, giving you practical experience alongside your degree. It suits people who want hands-on business skills and prefer learning by doing rather than pure theory.
