| What it is | You study nursing, learning how to provide direct patient care, manage health conditions, and work within hospital and community health settings. Unlike a general health sciences program, nursing focuses specifically on clinical skills and the theory of caring for people across their lifespan. This program suits people who want hands-on healthcare work and are comfortable with science and human interaction. | Health Sciences is a broad program combining study of how health systems work, the use of technology and data in healthcare, and social policy that shapes health outcomes. It differs from biology or medicine by focusing on the bigger picture of health delivery and policy rather than pure life sciences or direct clinical training. It suits students interested in healthcare careers beyond clinical practice, like health administration, public health, or health technology roles. | This program teaches the science behind human health, public health systems, and how technology supports medical care. You'll study biology, chemistry, and data systems alongside social and policy issues in healthcare. The co-op option lets you work in hospitals, research labs, or health organizations while you study, which suits students who want real workplace experience before deciding on a health career path. |
