| What it is | You study the chemistry of living things — how molecules work in cells and bodies, and how drugs and toxins affect them. This program combines chemistry and biology more deeply than a general life sciences program, with added focus on how substances interact with organisms. It suits students curious about medicine, pharmacy, drug development, or toxicology who want a stronger chemical foundation than biology alone provides. | Biology is the study of living organisms, from cells and genes to plants and animals. This program lets you choose to add paid work terms in research labs or related industries alongside your courses, giving you real experience before you graduate. It suits students who want hands-on learning and a chance to explore career options while earning money. | One Health is the study of how human health, animal health, and the environment are connected, drawing on biology, genetics, microbiology, and veterinary science. Unlike traditional biology or health science programs, it teaches you to see disease and wellness across all three systems rather than in isolation. The co-op option means you alternate between study terms and paid work placements. This suits people interested in public health, disease prevention, food safety, or environmental health who want hands-on experience before graduation. |

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.
