What it isHealth Sciences is a broad study of how the human body works, disease, and health systems. You'll take courses in anatomy, physiology, biochemistry, and public health rather than focusing on one specific medical profession. This program suits students interested in health careers — whether that's medicine, nursing, therapy, or public health — who want to explore options before specializing.You study mechanical engineering combined with biomedical technology and computer science over five years, learning to design medical devices and systems using mechanical and software skills. Unlike a single engineering degree, this double program integrates all three fields from the start rather than treating them separately. It suits people drawn to healthcare innovation who want hands-on experience solving real engineering problems through mandatory work terms.
