What it is	You study how biological systems work at the molecular and cellular level, with a focus on health and disease. This program emphasizes the chemistry and physics underlying living processes more than a general biology program does. It suits students interested in understanding the scientific foundations of medicine and disease without committing to medical school itself.	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.

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.
