What it isOne Health is the study of how human health, animal health, and the environment are connected, drawing on biology, genetics, microbiology, and veterinary science. Unlike traditional biology or health science programs, it teaches you to see disease and wellness across all three systems rather than in isolation. The co-op option means you alternate between study terms and paid work placements. This suits people interested in public health, disease prevention, food safety, or environmental health who want hands-on experience before graduation.You study the science of living systems — cells, organisms, genetics, and disease — with flexible depth depending on which specialization you choose. The co-op option lets you alternate between classroom semesters and paid work terms at research labs, hospitals, or biotech companies, building real experience alongside your degree. This stream suits students drawn to biology and chemistry who want either a traditional path or the chance to test careers in health and life sciences before graduating.A Bachelor of Science (General) lets you study science broadly across biology, chemistry, environmental science, and related fields, choosing your own mix of courses rather than specializing deeply in one area. Unlike an honours program, it gives you flexibility to explore multiple sciences without committing to a single major or meeting the tighter requirements of a specialized stream. This suits students who are curious about science in general but aren't yet sure which direction appeals to them most.

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.
