To apply for a Computer Science specialization (major, combined major, etc.) use the centralized process administered by the Faculty of Science.
Bachelor of Computer Science - Integrated Computer Science (BCS)
This 20-month, full-time program is designed for students who've already completed an undergraduate degree outside of Computer Science. In this program, Computer Science courses can be combined with relevant work experience through a co-op component. The program is directed at academically strong students with little or no programming experience.
