What it isThis program trains you to become a midwife, a healthcare professional who supports pregnant people through pregnancy, labour, and the first weeks after birth. Unlike nursing or general medicine, midwifery focuses specifically on low-risk pregnancy and birth as a normal process rather than a medical emergency. The part-time format lets you study while working, making it suited to people who need flexible scheduling or are already in healthcare roles.Life Sciences at UTM lets you study how living systems work, from the structure of molecules to human health and evolution. You can focus on areas like molecular biology, biotechnology, human biology, or anthropology depending on your interests. The program includes optional co-op work terms that let you gain hands-on experience in labs, hospitals, or research settings alongside your coursework — useful if you're considering health professions or research careers.This is a four-year science degree where you specialize in one of many fields — from chemistry and physics to biology, geology, audiology, linguistics, or environmental science. The honours designation means you go deeper into your chosen subject than a general science degree would. The program includes optional co-op work terms, letting you gain paid professional experience alongside your studies, which suits students who want both classroom learning and real workplace practice in their field.
