What it isYou study how the human body moves and functions during physical activity and exercise. This combines biology, anatomy, and sports science to understand muscles, joints, and fitness rather than just coaching or athletic training. The program includes a co-op work term, giving you practical experience in settings like rehabilitation clinics, fitness facilities, or sports medicine. This suits people interested in exercise science, health, or athletic performance who want both classroom learning and hands-on experience.This program combines engineering design with biology and medicine so you can solve health-care problems using technology and innovation. Unlike a standard biomedical engineering degree, it explicitly weaves in entrepreneurship and business thinking, preparing you to develop and bring new medical devices or health technologies to market. It suits people who want to build things that help patients and are interested in turning ideas into real products or companies.
