| What it is | You study how to teach physical education and health to elementary and junior high students, combining exercise science with teacher training in one four-year degree. Unlike a general education degree, this program embeds sport and fitness knowledge directly into your teaching preparation, so you graduate ready to teach PE specifically. It suits students who want to teach, enjoy movement and health topics, and prefer a focused path over choosing between separate degrees. | This program teaches you the science behind living systems — cells, genetics, microbes, and how drugs work in the body. You'll study biology and chemistry at a deeper level than in high school, with options to specialize in areas like biotechnology, pharmacology, or human health. It suits people curious about how organisms function and interested in careers in research, pharmaceuticals, healthcare, or environmental science. |

Ranges are what each university publishes, not guaranteed cutoffs, and limited-enrolment programs often admit above them. Confirm anything you are about to act on with the university; each column links to its source.
