| What it is | You study the science and practice of patient care, learning human anatomy, pharmacology, and clinical skills alongside supervised hospital and community placements. This is a direct entry program, meaning you begin nursing coursework immediately rather than completing general prerequisites first. It suits people who are confident they want to become registered nurses and are ready to combine classroom learning with hands-on patient care from the start. | You study how to design and build medical devices and equipment that help diagnose and treat disease. This blends biology and engineering, so you learn both how the human body works and how to create machines and systems that interact with it. The co-op stream lets you alternate between classroom study and paid work terms at hospitals, medical companies, or research labs, giving you real hands-on experience before you graduate. This program suits students who want to apply engineering skills to healthcare and prefer learning through workplace projects alongside their coursework. | You study how to design and build systems that use living organisms or biological processes to solve problems — combining engineering principles with biotechnology. This is a direct-entry co-op program, meaning you alternate between classroom terms and paid work terms from the start, giving you hands-on industry experience alongside your degree. It suits students who want practical engineering skills and real-world application in fields like medical devices, bioprocessing, or pharmaceutical manufacturing. |
