What it isBiomedical Science is the study of how the human body works at the cellular and molecular level, using tools from biology and chemistry to understand disease and develop treatments. The co-op option requires you to complete paid work terms at labs, hospitals, or research facilities alongside your studies, giving you real experience in the field. This program suits students who want hands-on exposure to medical science before deciding whether to pursue medicine, dentistry, or research careers.You study business and finance with a focus on health-care data and systems. This combines commerce training with health informatics, so you learn to analyze health-care operations and information rather than just general business. The co-op option lets you alternate between school and paid work terms in health-care or health-tech organizations. This program suits people interested in the business side of health care, who want practical work experience alongside their degree.This is a two-year applied business program covering accounting, finance, management, and economics fundamentals. Unlike a four-year bachelor's degree, it gets you working faster with practical skills employers want immediately. It suits students who want hands-on business training without the length or theory-heavy focus of a university degree.A Bachelor of Administration or Commerce teaches you core business skills like accounting, finance, management, and human resources, along with how organizations actually operate. The BComm adds a stronger focus on accounting and financial analysis compared to the BAdmin. Both programs include a co-op work term, so you alternate between classroom and paid work at real companies, building experience while you study. This suits people who want practical business skills, like working with numbers or managing people, and who value learning on the job.
