Strongly recommended subject: ENG4U Alternative Offers You will receive an offer of admission to only 1 program. Your highest listed choice is considered first when you indicate more than 1 Brock program on your application. If you are not eligible for your first choice, your subsequent choices will be considered in your indicated order of preference. In most cases: If you apply to only 1 Brock program but do not qualify, you will be considered for an alternative or related program. If you apply but are not admitted to a co-op program you will automatically be considered for the regular, non-co-op program.	English at 60% Advanced Functions at 60% Two of Biology, Calculus & Vectors, Chemistry, Computer Science, Earth & Space Science, or Physics at 60% Prerequisite courses are calculated in the admission average.

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.	A four-year Bachelor of Science in Biology teaches you how living organisms work, from cells to ecosystems, with a focus on environmental systems and conservation. You'll study ecology, genetics, physiology, and how species interact with their surroundings, combining lab work with field study. This program suits students who want a broad foundation in biology and are interested in environmental issues, rather than pursuing a specialized professional path like medicine or engineering.	This program lets you study pure science in one of four areas: biology, chemistry, physics, or a mix of these subjects. You'll take foundational courses in your chosen field and build toward specialized upper-year courses. It suits students who want a strong grounding in how the natural world works, whether they're planning to go further in science or use that knowledge in other directions.	An Honours Science degree lets you study a science subject deeply — biology, chemistry, physics, computer science, or another physical science — and choose your own focus within it. Unlike a general science program, an Honours degree requires a concentrated major and typically includes a research or capstone component. The co-op option means you alternate between school terms and paid work placements in science-related jobs, which suits people who want real workplace experience alongside their degree.
