Program details
Overview
This program leads to a Bachelor of Science (Honours) over four years, delivered in-class at the North Oshawa campus, and covers software, algorithms, and computing more broadly. Students can specialize in Artificial Intelligence, Data Science, Interactive Computing, or Software Development, and may extend the degree to five years through a co-op option or complete an Honours Thesis project with a faculty advisor as part of the program's research-study and undergraduate-thesis components. A Bachelor of Science and Management (Honours) pathway is also available in the upper years, adding coursework in finance, accounting, operations, project management, and marketing for students interested in managerial roles. A direct-entry co-op option offers full-time, paid work terms throughout the degree, and the program includes a capstone project. It suits students preparing for work in software and computing industries, further graduate study, or founding their own ventures.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: Ontario Tech University states no admission requirements specific to Computer Science beyond the OSSD prerequisites it lists and its general English proficiency policy. Applicants need the Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD) with six 4U/4M credits, including English (ENG4U), Advanced Functions (MHF4U), and one of Calculus and Vectors (MCV4U), Physics (SPH4U) or Computer Science (ICS4U), plus a combined minimum 70 per cent average across the prerequisite computer science, math and science courses; the program recommends taking all three of MCV4U, ICS4U and SPH4U. Admission is competitive: last year's cut-off was 75 per cent and the expected cut-off is 73 per cent, so meeting the minimums does not guarantee a seat. Applicants whose first language is not English must present, within two years of the intake, IELTS Academic 6.5 with no band below 6.0, Duolingo English Test 120, PTE Academic 58, CAEL 70 with no band below 60, Cambridge English Advanced 180 with no band below 170, or Oxford ELLT 7, or an IB Diploma or certificate with a minimum grade of 4 in English A, per the university's general admission requirements. The program begins each September.
