What it is	Data science combines statistics, programming, and practical problem-solving to extract useful information from large sets of data. You'll learn to write code, build mathematical models, and communicate what the data reveals to non-technical people. This program suits students who enjoy both math and computer science and want to apply technical skills to real-world questions across business, health, science, and other fields.	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.	You study the science of living things — from individual cells and genes to entire ecosystems and animal behaviour. The Environmental Science degree focuses on how organisms interact with their environment, while other options let you specialize in animal biology, plants, genetics, or microbiology. This program suits people curious about how life works and interested in careers ranging from conservation and wildlife management to research, teaching, or health sciences.
