What it isYou study the science and skills of patient care, learning anatomy, pharmacology, and hands-on clinical practice to become a registered nurse. Unlike general science programs, nursing is direct-entry and includes mandatory clinical placements in hospitals and healthcare settings starting early. It suits people who want to combine science knowledge with direct patient interaction and are ready for the responsibility that comes with healthcare work.This program teaches you the science behind how the human body works, how diseases develop, and how medicines treat them. You study human biology, pharmacology, and related medical sciences rather than practising medicine itself. The co-op version includes mandatory work terms at healthcare or research organizations alongside your coursework, letting you test whether this field suits you before committing to further training.Neuroscience is the study of how the brain and nervous system work, from molecules to behavior. You'll take courses in human biology, chemistry, and specialized neuroscience classes to understand brain function and neurological disorders. The co-op option lets you alternate between classroom learning and paid work placements at research labs or health organizations, giving you real experience alongside your degree. This program suits students fascinated by how the brain operates and interested in hands-on research or clinical work.
