What it isYou study how to identify and control workplace hazards — things like unsafe equipment, chemical exposure, or ergonomic problems — and how to keep workers healthy and safe on the job. This program includes a work-integrated component, so you alternate between classroom learning and paid work terms in real workplaces, giving you direct experience applying safety principles. It suits people who want a practical career focused on prevention and problem-solving in industrial, construction, healthcare, or office settings.This program teaches you the science behind living systems — cells, genetics, microbes, and how drugs work in the body. You'll study biology and chemistry at a deeper level than in high school, with options to specialize in areas like biotechnology, pharmacology, or human health. It suits people curious about how organisms function and interested in careers in research, pharmaceuticals, healthcare, or environmental science.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.
