| What it is | You study how to design and build medical devices and equipment that help diagnose and treat disease. This blends biology and engineering, so you learn both how the human body works and how to create machines and systems that interact with it. The co-op stream lets you alternate between classroom study and paid work terms at hospitals, medical companies, or research labs, giving you real hands-on experience before you graduate. This program suits students who want to apply engineering skills to healthcare and prefer learning through workplace projects alongside their coursework. | Medical Sciences is a four-year undergraduate program where you study human biology, chemistry, and related sciences to prepare for health professions or medical research. Unlike a general science degree, it focuses specifically on the foundational knowledge needed for medicine, dentistry, pharmacy, or graduate health programs. The program includes optional co-op work terms, letting you gain hands-on experience in labs, hospitals, or health settings alongside your coursework. It suits students drawn to understanding how the human body works and considering careers in health care or biomedical fields. |
