Prerequisitesas published	Study the fundamentals of life in this flexible program that lets you blaze your own trail. Specialize in microbiology, cellular development, environmental and evolutionary biology, population and ecosystem ecology, or any combination of these areas. You'll learn research techniques in our new labs and out in the field that will prepare you for a wide range of career paths, ranging from interests at the molecular level, to whole organism (including humans) and/or the more complex community and ecosystem levels.

What it is	This program teaches you the science of living organisms, from microscopic cells and microbes to whole animals, ecosystems, and human biology. You choose your own focus areas — such as microbiology, ecology, or how organisms develop — and learn research methods through labs and field work. It suits students curious about how life works at any scale and interested in hands-on investigation rather than a fixed curriculum.	You study the science of human movement and fitness combined with teaching and coaching methods. This program integrates exercise physiology, biomechanics, and sport psychology with practical skills in coaching athletes and leading fitness programs. Unlike a pure kinesiology degree, this one prepares you directly for careers coaching teams or instructing fitness classes. It suits people who want to work in sports, recreation, or wellness settings and learn both the scientific reasoning and hands-on teaching side.	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.	Kinesiology is the study of how the human body moves and functions during exercise and physical activity. You'll learn anatomy, physiology, and biomechanics alongside sport science to understand muscle, bone, and cardiovascular systems. This program suits students interested in exercise science, athletic performance, or health-related careers who want deeper biological knowledge than general physical education offers.
