| What it is | You study how to teach physical education and health to high school students, combining education theory with the science of human movement and fitness. Unlike a standard bachelor of education, this concurrent program integrates your teaching credentials with specialized knowledge in exercise physiology and sport science from the start, so you graduate ready to teach those specific subjects. This suits people who want to coach or teach PE/health at the secondary level and prefer learning subject content alongside teaching methods rather than studying them separately. | You study the structure and function of living organisms, from cells and molecules to whole organisms and ecosystems. The BA and BSc differ mainly in depth: the BSc requires more chemistry and physics alongside biology, preparing you for research or graduate study, while the BA offers more flexibility to combine biology with other subjects. The co-op option lets you work in labs, hospitals, or biotech companies between study terms. This program suits students curious about how life works who want hands-on experience before deciding on a career direction. | You study the science of living things — from individual cells and genes to entire ecosystems and animal behaviour. The Environmental Science degree focuses on how organisms interact with their environment, while other options let you specialize in animal biology, plants, genetics, or microbiology. This program suits people curious about how life works and interested in careers ranging from conservation and wildlife management to research, teaching, or health sciences. |
