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 advanced topics in emergency medical care and healthcare technology through online, self-paced courses designed for practising paramedics. This program builds on your paramedic diploma and work experience by introducing complementary therapies, health informatics, and medical technology rather than focusing solely on traditional emergency response skills. It suits experienced paramedics who want to deepen their clinical knowledge and explore broader healthcare applications while continuing to work.You study the engineering behind medical devices and electrical systems that keep people healthy. This combined program blends electrical engineering with biomedical technology, so you learn to design everything from pacemakers to imaging equipment rather than focusing on either field alone. The program includes mandatory co-op work terms, giving you hands-on experience in hospitals, device companies, or research labs alongside your classroom learning. It suits people drawn to both electronics and healthcare who want to solve real problems in medicine.
