What you study	Chemistry Pharmacology, Toxicology & Pharmacy	Agriculture Anthropology Archaeology Biological Sciences
What it is	You study the chemistry of how drugs work in the body and how to develop and test new medications. This program requires you to complete paid work terms alongside your courses at pharmaceutical companies or research labs, giving you real industry experience before you graduate. It suits people who want hands-on experience in drug development and are comfortable alternating between school and workplace every few months.	Honours Science is a broad science degree where you choose your major from fields like biology, chemistry, environmental science, computer science, or archaeology. Unlike a general science program, an honours degree requires you to specialize in one subject and complete more advanced courses in that area. It suits students who want a strong grounding in science but haven't yet decided on one specific career path, or who want deeper knowledge in a particular field.

Ranges are what each university publishes, not guaranteed cutoffs, and limited-enrolment programs often admit above them. Confirm anything you are about to act on with the university; each column links to its source.
