What it is	Behavioural Neuroscience is the study of how the brain and nervous system produce behaviour, combining biology, chemistry, and psychology. You'll learn how neurons work, how chemicals affect the brain, and how physical brain activity links to actions and thoughts. This program suits students curious about why people and animals behave the way they do and comfortable with both lab science and human behaviour.	You study psychology combined with applied health sciences — how human behaviour, biology, and social factors shape health and illness. Unlike a straight psychology program, this stream emphasizes practical health applications and the ability to work across healthcare and social systems. The co-op option lets you work in healthcare settings, clinics, or community agencies while studying. It suits students interested in both understanding the mind and applying that knowledge to real health problems.	You study how the brain and nervous system work at every level, from molecules and cells to behaviour and disease. The BSc and Management stream adds business and management courses alongside your neuroscience work, preparing you for leadership roles in healthcare or research settings. This program suits people drawn to both biological science and understanding the mind, especially those interested in research, medicine, or healthcare careers.
