What it is	You study how people think, feel, and behave — their minds, emotions, and actions. The BA program focuses on the human and social side of psychology, while the BSc program emphasizes biology and scientific methods, requiring stronger math and science foundations. This suits you if you're curious about why people do what they do and want either a broader social science education or a research-focused scientific approach.	You study how the brain and nervous system work, combining biology, chemistry, and human anatomy to understand brain structure, function, and disorders. The co-op requirement means you alternate between classroom semesters and paid work terms at research labs, hospitals, or biotech companies, giving you real-world experience alongside your degree. This program suits people who want hands-on science training and a pathway into neuroscience research, clinical work, or healthcare fields.	Neuroscience at Brock combines biology, chemistry, and psychology to study how the brain and nervous system work at every level, from molecules to behaviour. The co-op option lets you alternate between classroom semesters and paid work terms at research labs, hospitals, or related organizations, giving you practical experience alongside your degree. This program suits students drawn to understanding how the mind functions, who want hands-on research or clinical experience, and who value learning in real workplace settings.
