What it is	This program teaches you how to collect, analyze, and interpret data using mathematical methods and software tools. Unlike a pure mathematics degree, you focus on applying statistical techniques to real-world problems in business, science, and public policy. The co-op option lets you alternate between classroom study and paid work terms, suiting students who want practical experience alongside theory.	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.
