| What it is | Medical physics applies physics principles to diagnose and treat disease in hospitals and clinics — you study how radiation, imaging, and other tools work in medicine alongside core physics. Unlike a straight physics degree, this program integrates medical applications from the start and includes a co-op work term, so you gain hands-on experience in hospital physics departments while studying. It suits people drawn to both physics and healthcare who want to solve practical problems in a clinical setting. | You study how biological systems work at the molecular and cellular level, with a focus on health and disease. This program emphasizes the chemistry and physics underlying living processes more than a general biology program does. It suits students interested in understanding the scientific foundations of medicine and disease without committing to medical school itself. | 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. |

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.
