What it is	Nursing is a hands-on health care program where you learn to assess patients, administer treatment, and provide direct care under supervision. You'll study anatomy, physiology, pharmacology, and nursing theory alongside clinical placements in hospitals and community settings. This program suits people who want to make a direct difference in patient care and are comfortable with science coursework and shift-based work.	This program teaches you how the brain and nervous system work at every level, from cells and molecules to behaviour and thought. You study human biology, chemistry, and mathematics alongside neuroscience courses that explore how neurons communicate and how damage or disease affects the mind and body. If you choose co-op, you'll alternate between classroom study and paid work terms at research labs or hospitals, giving you real experience alongside your degree.	You study psychology combined with applied health sciences — how human behaviour, biology, and social factors shape health and illness. Unlike a straight psychology program, this stream emphasizes practical health applications and the ability to work across healthcare and social systems. The co-op option lets you work in healthcare settings, clinics, or community agencies while studying. It suits students interested in both understanding the mind and applying that knowledge to real health problems.
