What it is	Biomedical Biology focuses on how human body systems work at the cellular and molecular level, combining biology with chemistry to understand disease and health. It differs from a general biology program by emphasizing medical applications and the chemistry underlying biological processes rather than ecology or organism diversity. This program suits students interested in health sciences who want a foundation in lab-based research before pursuing medicine, dentistry, or other clinical fields.	Biological Sciences is the study of living organisms — their structure, function, genetics, ecology, and how they interact with their environment. At Brock, you can pursue this as a straight Bachelor of Science or combine it with teacher education through the BSc/BEd, which qualifies you to teach biology in Ontario high schools. The program includes a co-op option that integrates paid work terms with your studies, giving you practical experience in research labs, government agencies, or industry.	Human Health Science is the study of how the human body works and what affects health, including biology, physiology, and disease. It sits between pure biology and applied health professions like nursing or medicine, giving you a broader foundation in health sciences without training you for a specific clinical role. This program suits students interested in health and medicine who want flexibility to explore different career paths, from research to public health to further professional study.
