What it is	Biology is the study of living organisms, from cells and genes to whole animals and ecosystems. This program gives you broad training across these levels rather than specializing early in areas like medicine or ecology. It suits students curious about how life works and who want flexibility to pursue further study or careers in health sciences, research, or environmental fields.	Biological Sciences is the study of living organisms — their structure, function, genetics, ecology, and how they interact with their environment. At Brock, you can pursue this as a straight Bachelor of Science or combine it with teacher education through the BSc/BEd, which qualifies you to teach biology in Ontario high schools. The program includes a co-op option that integrates paid work terms with your studies, giving you practical experience in research labs, government agencies, or industry.	Environmental Studies is the academic examination of how human societies interact with the natural world, combining perspectives from ecology, policy, economics, and social science. Because this program is bilingual, you'll study and write in both English and French throughout your degree, which deepens your ability to work in Canadian environmental fields. This program suits people curious about environmental problems who want flexibility to explore multiple disciplines rather than specializing in one science.	A Bachelor of Science is a four-year degree where you study science subjects in depth. You choose a major like Computer Science, Environmental Studies, Mathematics, Physical Geography, or Psychology, and take courses across your field plus some complementary subjects. It suits students who want a broad science education and plan to work in research, industry, education, or graduate studies related to their major.
