What it is	You study how to assess, care for, and support patients in hospitals, clinics, and community settings. Nursing combines biology, chemistry, and hands-on clinical training to prepare you for direct patient care and health advocacy. It suits people who want to help others through practical medical work and who can handle high-pressure situations with focus and compassion.	You study human behaviour, relationships, and social systems from childhood through adulthood, drawing on sociology, psychology, and policy analysis. This program is broader than social work alone because it covers family dynamics, community development, and social change rather than focusing only on professional counselling or casework. It suits people interested in understanding how families and societies work and who want careers in social services, policy, research, or international development.	This program teaches you how health systems actually work — covering everything from how hospitals are run and data is managed to the policies that shape who gets care and how. Unlike pure health science programs, you'll focus on the business, technology, and policy side of medicine rather than clinical practice. It suits people interested in health but drawn to organization, technology, or social systems more than direct patient care.
