| What it is | This program teaches you the science behind how the human body works, how diseases develop, and how medicines treat them. You study human biology, pharmacology, and related medical sciences rather than practising medicine itself. The co-op version includes mandatory work terms at healthcare or research organizations alongside your coursework, letting you test whether this field suits you before committing to further training. | You study chemistry alongside medical and biological sciences, learning how molecules, cells, and chemical processes work in living systems. This combines pure chemistry with applied health science rather than focusing only on one discipline. It suits students interested in understanding the chemical basis of medicine, pharmacology, or biochemistry without committing to a professional health program like medicine. |
