| What it is | Psychology 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. | 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. | You study chemistry and biochemistry alongside music performance or theory over five years, earning two degrees at once. Unlike a single major, you commit equal time to both fields, which means rigorous lab work and science courses paired with music ensemble, applied lessons, or composition. This suits students who have genuine strength and passion in both science and the arts, and want to pursue careers that might combine them or keep both paths open. | This program combines biology, chemistry, and psychology to explore how living systems work at both the molecular and mental levels. You'll study everything from cellular and genetic processes to brain function and behaviour, with the option to gain work experience through co-op placements. It suits students interested in medicine, neuroscience, pharmaceutical research, or any field that bridges the physical and behavioural 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.
