Windsor Concurrent General Bachelor of Science/Bachelor of Education

University of Windsor

The published admission average for Concurrent General Bachelor of Science/Bachelor of Education at University of Windsor is 80% for September 2027 entry, under OUAC code NSE.

You study science — typically chemistry or physics — while simultaneously training to become a high school science teacher. You earn both a Bachelor of Science and a Bachelor of Education in four years instead of the usual five or six, moving through both programs together from day one. This suits students who are certain they want to teach science at the secondary level and want to complete their qualification efficiently.

Plain-English summary. The universities publish requirements but not an explanation of the program, so this one is written for you and checked against the official listing above. Read the university’s own page before you decide.

What this leads to

The picture for chemistry as of 2026-08-17, not a description of this particular program.

Most chemistry graduates work as lab technicians or quality control chemists in pharmaceutical and manufacturing facilities, running tests and monitoring production. Others become formulation scientists developing new products, or research chemists in drug discovery—though those roles usually need a master's degree.

In its favour

  • Job security is reasonable: chemistry firms consistently hire for lab work, and older chemists retiring create openings.
  • You avoid student debt if you skip grad school: bachelor's-level positions in quality control and testing exist and pay $42k–67k starting.

Worth knowing

  • AI is automating the routine analytical work you'd do entry-level (58% of chemical firms have integrated AI into labs already), so your first job may disappear faster than previous cohorts.
  • Most interesting chemistry work (drug discovery, research) needs a master's or PhD, which means 2–6 more years of school at steep cost.
  • Youth unemployment is at 12.7% in Canada (mid-2026), so even with a degree you're competing hard for those technician spots.

How AI is changing this work

AI has already started automating the molecular analysis, data interpretation, and lab bench work that entry-level chemists traditionally did. Robots now run experiments 24/7 and AI predicts molecular properties faster than humans can synthesize them. If you take a four-year degree starting 2027, the routine lab jobs waiting for you in 2031 will be fewer and more automatable. The field is shifting toward roles that require deeper training (master's level) in computational chemistry, data science, or synthesis engineering—not away from chemistry entirely, but away from the technician track.
