What it isPhysics is the study of how matter and energy behave — from tiny atoms to huge stars. At Brock, you'll combine classroom learning with paid work terms in labs, companies, or research facilities, giving you real-world experience alongside your degree. This program suits students who want hands-on skills and industry connections before graduating.A Biology degree at Glendon lets you study how living things work, from cells and molecules to whole organisms and ecosystems. You'll take core biology courses and choose from specialized areas like genetics, microbiology, human biology, or biotechnology. The iBSc variant integrates bilingual (English–French) instruction throughout your degree, rather than offering biology taught only in English.You study the science of living things — from individual cells and genes to entire ecosystems and animal behaviour. The Environmental Science degree focuses on how organisms interact with their environment, while other options let you specialize in animal biology, plants, genetics, or microbiology. This program suits people curious about how life works and interested in careers ranging from conservation and wildlife management to research, teaching, or health sciences.You study the structure and function of living organisms, from cells and molecules to whole organisms and ecosystems. The BA and BSc differ mainly in depth: the BSc requires more chemistry and physics alongside biology, preparing you for research or graduate study, while the BA offers more flexibility to combine biology with other subjects. The co-op option lets you work in labs, hospitals, or biotech companies between study terms. This program suits students curious about how life works who want hands-on experience before deciding on a career direction.
