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.	Cognitive science is the study of how the mind works — combining psychology, philosophy, linguistics, and computer science to understand thinking, language, and behaviour. This program lets you choose a co-op option, placing you in paid work terms with employers in neuroscience, tech, or research fields alongside your courses. It suits people curious about both how brains function and how that knowledge applies in real jobs.	You study how people and societies should organize themselves, and what makes choices right or wrong. Ethics and political philosophy blend thinking about moral principles with questions about power, justice, law, and governance. This program suits students who want to understand the foundations of politics and ethics through careful argument and debate rather than through policy work or management training.	This program combines business studies with social sciences — covering how companies interact with society, economics, politics, and culture. Unlike a straight business degree, you study sociology, communication, literature, and politics alongside core business courses to understand the human and social side of organizations. It suits students interested in business who also want to explore ethics, culture, and how society shapes markets.
