What it is	You study chemistry alongside medical and biological sciences, learning how molecules, cells, and chemical processes work in living systems. This combines pure chemistry with applied health science rather than focusing only on one discipline. It suits students interested in understanding the chemical basis of medicine, pharmacology, or biochemistry without committing to a professional health program like medicine.	Psychology at Glendon is a BA program where you study human behaviour, mental processes, and how people think and interact. You can take electives across many related fields like forensic science, human biology, education, or law depending on your interests. The iBA option requires you to complete part of your degree in French immersion, making it suited to students who want bilingual depth alongside their psychology training.	Psychology is the study of how people think, feel, and behave, and why they do what they do. At Glendon, you can specialize in areas like forensic psychology, human resources, or education. The iBSc option lets you complete part of your degree in another country while maintaining bilingual instruction throughout, which is different from the regular BSc. This program suits students curious about human behaviour who want flexibility in choosing a specialization within psychology.
