What you study	Chemistry Pharmacology, Toxicology & Pharmacy	Animal Science Biological Sciences Biology Biotechnology
What it is	You study how chemicals work in medicine and the body, focusing on drug design, how drugs break down, and their effects on human health. This combines chemistry and pharmacology more directly than a general science degree, giving you hands-on lab work alongside theory. It suits students who want to understand the science behind medications and are comfortable with chemistry and math at an advanced level.	A Biology degree at Glendon lets you study how living things work, from cells and molecules to whole organisms and ecosystems. You'll take core biology courses and choose from specialized areas like genetics, microbiology, human biology, or biotechnology. The iBSc variant integrates bilingual (English–French) instruction throughout your degree, rather than offering biology taught only in English.
