What it is	You study human behaviour, relationships, and social systems from childhood through adulthood, drawing on sociology, psychology, and policy analysis. This program is broader than social work alone because it covers family dynamics, community development, and social change rather than focusing only on professional counselling or casework. It suits people interested in understanding how families and societies work and who want careers in social services, policy, research, or international development.	Applied Health Sciences is a four-year degree that combines study of how the human body works with research into health policy and social factors that affect people's wellbeing. Unlike pure biology or chemistry programs, it focuses on real-world health problems and how systems can be improved to serve communities better. It suits students interested in healthcare careers who want both scientific grounding and understanding of the broader social side of health.	This program teaches you how health systems, policies, and technology work across different countries and communities. You study international development, social policy, and health informatics — how data and technology shape healthcare delivery worldwide. The co-op option lets you work for four to eight months at a health organization while earning course credit, giving you real experience alongside classroom learning. It suits people who want to understand global health challenges and see how policy and technology can address them.	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.
