What it is	You study how to provide direct patient care, manage medical procedures, and support people through health challenges in hospitals, clinics, and community settings. This is a professional program leading to registered nurse credentials, different from general health sciences because it combines classroom learning with supervised clinical placements where you work alongside experienced nurses. It suits people who want hands-on healthcare work, can handle emotional demands, and are comfortable with detailed science and precision in a fast-paced environment.	Biomedical Science is the study of how the human body works at the cellular and molecular level, using tools from biology and chemistry to understand disease and develop treatments. The co-op option requires you to complete paid work terms at labs, hospitals, or research facilities alongside your studies, giving you real experience in the field. This program suits students who want hands-on exposure to medical science before deciding whether to pursue medicine, dentistry, or research careers.	A Biology degree at Glendon lets you study how living things work, from cells and molecules to whole organisms and ecosystems. You'll take core biology courses and choose from specialized areas like genetics, microbiology, human biology, or biotechnology. The iBSc variant integrates bilingual (English–French) instruction throughout your degree, rather than offering biology taught only in English.
