What it isHealth Sciences is a broad program where you study how human health works, from biology and chemistry to technology and data systems used in medicine and healthcare. It's wider than a specialized nursing or medical lab program because you explore multiple health-related fields rather than training for one specific healthcare job. It suits students curious about science and health who want options to specialize later or move toward healthcare careers beyond direct patient care.This program introduces you to how Earth's physical systems — climate, geology, water — interact with human society and geography. You explore environmental challenges through both natural science and social perspectives, rather than focusing on just one. It suits students curious about environmental issues from multiple angles who want hands-on experience through co-op placements.
