What it isPsychology is the scientific study of human behaviour and mental processes — how people think, feel, and act. At Wilfrid Laurier, you can choose between a BA (emphasizing the social and humanities aspects) or a BSc (focusing on research methods and biological foundations). The program includes optional co-op terms where you work in real clinical, research, or organizational settings alongside your studies, giving you practical experience that pure coursework alone doesn't provide.Medical Sciences is a first-year foundation program in human biology and life sciences designed for students considering health professions like medicine, dentistry, or pharmacy. It covers anatomy, physiology, chemistry, and cell biology at university level. This program prepares you for competitive professional school applications while letting you explore whether medical training is right for you.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.
