Kickstart your professional journey with a unique degree program that blends scientific expertise with essential business acumen. Waterloo's Science and Business program merges studies in biology, chemistry, and physics with training in economics, accounting, marketing, legal studies, and entrepreneurial principles. Customize your education by concentrating on one of three scientific specializations, or maintain a more general approach by selecting diverse courses aligned with your goals. At one of Canada's leading business schools, you'll collaborate in intimate settings on case analyses, business strategies, and market evaluations, while also having access to paid professional opportunities through the co-op program. Graduates enjoy diverse career paths, applying their knowledge in areas like intellectual property, scientific research, financial services, technical sales, corporate growth, legal professions, and numerous other sectors.

Consider our Bioinformatics Option for specialized training.
