What it is	A Liberal Science degree lets you study physics, chemistry, biology, and earth sciences without committing to a single specialization. Unlike a focused science program, this approach gives you flexibility to explore multiple science fields before choosing a direction or combining them in your final year. It suits students who are strong in science but unsure which branch appeals most, or who want a broad understanding of how different sciences connect.	You study how biological systems work at the molecular and cellular level, with a focus on health and disease. This program emphasizes the chemistry and physics underlying living processes more than a general biology program does. It suits students interested in understanding the scientific foundations of medicine and disease without committing to medical school itself.	This program teaches you how to support people with mental health challenges through counselling, psychology, and community work. Unlike a psychology degree that focuses on research and theory, this mental health program emphasizes practical skills for helping others directly. It suits people who want hands-on work in mental health settings and are fluent in French.
