What it isBiomedical 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.A four-year Bachelor of Science in Biology teaches you how living organisms work, from cells to ecosystems, with a focus on environmental systems and conservation. You'll study ecology, genetics, physiology, and how species interact with their surroundings, combining lab work with field study. This program suits students who want a broad foundation in biology and are interested in environmental issues, rather than pursuing a specialized professional path like medicine or engineering.You study the natural systems that support life on Earth — combining biology, chemistry, geology, and geography to understand ecosystems, environmental problems, and how living things interact with their physical surroundings. This pathway is structured to integrate multiple science disciplines rather than focus narrowly on one, and it includes mandatory co-operative work terms where you apply classroom learning to real environmental jobs. It suits students curious about how nature works across scales, from molecules to landscapes, who want hands-on experience before deciding on a specific environmental career.
