| What it is | This program combines biology, psychology, and neuroscience to study how the brain works, how we think and learn, and why we behave the way we do. You'll take courses in human anatomy, brain chemistry, and psychological science rather than focusing on just one discipline. It suits students curious about the science behind human behaviour and cognition who want a broad foundation before specializing in graduate study or careers in neuroscience, psychology, or health research. | 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. | 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. |
