What it isThis program teaches you how crime, the criminal justice system, and law enforcement actually work — combining theory about why crimes happen with practical study of policing, courts, and corrections. The co-op option lets you work in real criminal justice settings (police services, courts, or government agencies) alongside your classes, giving you direct experience instead of just classroom learning. It suits people curious about crime and justice who want hands-on exposure to the field before deciding on a specific career path.This is a broad science degree where you choose from fields like biology, chemistry, physics, computer science, geology, and others. You take foundational science courses in first year, then specialize by selecting which science subjects to focus on. Co-op is available, letting you do paid work terms at science-related employers alongside your studies.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.

Same subject area and a similar published range, at a campus you have not got in the table yet.

Ranges are what each university publishes, not guaranteed cutoffs, and limited-enrolment programs often admit above them. Confirm anything you are about to act on with the university; each column links to its source.
