What it is	This is a degree in psychology — the study of human behaviour, thinking, and mental health — with mandatory work placements built into your studies. You'll alternate between semesters of classroom learning and paid terms working in psychology-related settings like clinics, schools, or social agencies, giving you real experience before you graduate. It suits people interested in understanding why people act and think the way they do, and who want to test that interest through actual work before committing to a psychology career.	Life Sciences at UTM lets you study how living systems work, from the structure of molecules to human health and evolution. You can focus on areas like molecular biology, biotechnology, human biology, or anthropology depending on your interests. The program includes optional co-op work terms that let you gain hands-on experience in labs, hospitals, or research settings alongside your coursework — useful if you're considering health professions or research careers.	Life Sciences is a broad study of living organisms, their cells, genetics, and chemistry at the molecular level. You'll take core courses in biology, chemistry, and biochemistry, then choose a focus like microbiology, biotechnology, or human biology depending on your interests. The co-op option lets you alternate between school and paid work terms in research labs, hospitals, or biotech companies, giving you real experience alongside your degree.
