More than marks?supplementary application	Yes By applying for this concurrent education program and choosing your subject of major interest from the pull-down list, you will be considered for admission to both programs. Therefore, applicants should not use a subsequent application choice to apply to their subject of major interest separately. Graduates receive both a Bachelor of Education degree as well as a Bachelor's degree in their chosen subject of major interest. An online Faculty of Education Supplementary Information Form and supplemental fee are also required. Refer to the Faculty of Education website Usually closes before January 15	Marks only	Marks only

What it is	This program trains you to teach high school while earning two degrees at once: a Bachelor of Education and a Bachelor's degree in environmental and urban change. Unlike a regular education degree, you study both teaching methods and a focused subject combining environmental science, geography, planning, and politics. It suits students who want to specialize in environmental or urban issues and pass that knowledge to students in a classroom.	This five-year program combines biotechnology and chemical engineering, so you study both how to manipulate living systems at the molecular level and how to design and scale up chemical processes. Unlike a straight biochemistry degree, you learn practical engineering skills for industrial production and apply them through mandatory co-op work terms. It suits students who want to bridge pure science and hands-on problem-solving in fields like pharmaceuticals, food processing, or biofuels.	You study how chemicals and biological systems work together to solve real-world problems, learning biochemistry and chemical engineering side by side over five years. This dual degree goes deeper than choosing one field: you gain skills in both the science of living systems and the design of industrial processes. It suits people who want flexibility to work in pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, or chemical manufacturing, and who value alternating study terms with paid work placements through co-op.
