In this program, students gain breadth and depth in environmental science and build hands-on experience in the fields of earth observation, geomatics and geographic information science. Graduates of the program will have a unique background and skillset that combines knowledge of earth processes and environmental systems with technical know-how in remote sensing, spatial analysis and data science. 

•  Grade12 English 

Applicants are required to have English (ENG4U), Advanced Functions (MHF4U), 2 courses from: Biology (SBI4U), Chemistry (SCH4U), Physics (SPH4U), and 2 additional 4U or 4M courses. Two of three 4U high school science courses (i.e. Biology, Chemistry and Physics) are required for admission; completion of all three is highly recommended. Applicants who lack the third science course will take a replacement course in their first semester. Students applying to the University directly from high school will be considered for admission to Co-op. Normally, a minimum average of 80% is required for consideration, but exact cut-offs are determined by the quantity and quality of the applicant pool as well as space available in each program. All students, including International applicants, are encouraged to explore Co-operative Education as an option.
