| What it is | Public Health is the study of how to prevent disease and improve health across whole communities and populations, not just individual patients. This program includes a work-study option where you alternate between semesters of classroom learning and paid work terms at hospitals, government health agencies, or non-profits, giving you real experience in the field. It suits people interested in disease prevention, health policy, and community wellness who want both classroom knowledge and practical workplace experience before graduating. | Health Sciences is a broad program where you study how human health works, from biology and chemistry to technology and data systems used in medicine and healthcare. It's wider than a specialized nursing or medical lab program because you explore multiple health-related fields rather than training for one specific healthcare job. It suits students curious about science and health who want options to specialize later or move toward healthcare careers beyond direct patient care. | A Science Major is a four-year degree where you study one science subject deeply — such as physics, biology, geology, or environmental science — along with complementary courses in math and other sciences. It differs from a specialized honours program in that you focus on breadth within your chosen field rather than pursuing a single narrow specialization. This program suits students who want solid grounding in a science discipline without committing to professional training like engineering or medicine. |
