What it isA three-year Biology degree focuses on living organisms, cells, genetics, ecology, and how life systems work. This shorter format lets you finish faster than a four-year program while covering core biology topics. It suits students who want solid grounding in biological sciences without the extended timeline of an honours degree.You study business fundamentals — accounting, finance, marketing, human resources, and management — at two Lakehead campuses in Ontario and complete mandatory work terms alongside your courses. This structure differs from a standard business degree by splitting your education between Thunder Bay and Orillia and requiring you to alternate semesters of study with paid work experience. It suits students who want practical industry exposure while earning a degree and are comfortable moving between campuses.
