What you study	Nursing	Human Biology Sport & Exercise Science
What it is	You study the theory and practice of nursing care, learning anatomy, pharmacology, physiology, and clinical skills needed to work in hospitals, clinics, and community settings. This program is delivered at Mohawk College's campus rather than McMaster's main site, but follows McMaster's nursing curriculum and standards. It suits students who want hands-on healthcare training and are comfortable with science-based coursework and direct patient interaction.	You study human movement, exercise science, and how the body responds to physical activity, then transition directly into specialized training in physiotherapy — hands-on treatment of injuries and movement disorders. This five-year combined program lets you earn both a bachelor's and master's degree without applying separately, and it leads to eligibility for physiotherapy licensing. It suits students drawn to science-based healthcare who want to work hands-on with patients recovering from injury or managing physical disabilities.
