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 how to improve health at the population level by studying disease prevention, health policy, and data systems. You'll learn to analyse health trends, design public health programs, and use technology to track and manage health outcomes. The co-op option means you alternate between classroom study and paid work placements in real health organizations, giving you direct experience in the field and making it suit students who want hands-on learning alongside theory.Life Sciences at UTM lets you study how living systems work, from the structure of molecules to human health and evolution. You can focus on areas like molecular biology, biotechnology, human biology, or anthropology depending on your interests. The program includes optional co-op work terms that let you gain hands-on experience in labs, hospitals, or research settings alongside your coursework — useful if you're considering health professions or research careers.
