What it isYou study both teaching and social work together, learning how to educate young people while understanding the social issues that affect their lives and families. This concurrent program combines teacher training with social work coursework rather than requiring you to complete a teaching degree first. It suits people who want to teach but also care deeply about supporting students' wellbeing and addressing inequality in schools.Medical Sciences is a four-year undergraduate program where you study human biology, chemistry, and related sciences to prepare for health professions or medical research. Unlike a general science degree, it focuses specifically on the foundational knowledge needed for medicine, dentistry, pharmacy, or graduate health programs. The program includes optional co-op work terms, letting you gain hands-on experience in labs, hospitals, or health settings alongside your coursework. It suits students drawn to understanding how the human body works and considering careers in health care or biomedical fields.
