What it isDisability Studies examines disability through social, psychological, and global perspectives rather than purely medical ones. You'll explore how societies structure opportunities and barriers for disabled people, how disability intersects with development work across countries, and the psychological dimensions of living with disability. This program suits students interested in social justice, international work, or advocacy who want to understand disability as a lived experience and systemic issue.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.This program teaches you how health systems, policies, and technology work across different countries and communities. You study international development, social policy, and health informatics — how data and technology shape healthcare delivery worldwide. The co-op option lets you work for four to eight months at a health organization while earning course credit, giving you real experience alongside classroom learning. It suits people who want to understand global health challenges and see how policy and technology can address them.Social Sciences I is a first-year entry point where you explore human behaviour, society, and social systems through subjects like economics, sociology, anthropology, politics, and social work. Unlike a specialized program, you sample multiple disciplines before declaring a focus, letting you discover which area — from international development to health policy — matches your interests. It suits students curious about how societies work and drawn to understanding people and social issues from different angles.
