What it is	This is a one-year diploma focused on how governments design and carry out policies that affect society — things like healthcare, education, welfare, and environmental rules. You study the politics behind policy decisions and learn how social policies actually get made and implemented. It suits people who already have a completed degree or college diploma and want to shift into policy work without committing to another full bachelor's degree.	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 living organisms and how they work at every level, from whole animals and plants down to cells, genes, and molecules. This is a research-focused program where you can choose to include paid work terms alongside your courses, giving you real lab or field experience in biology-related workplaces. It suits students who want a solid foundation in biology and enjoy the idea of testing what they learn in actual research or applied settings.
