What it is	This program lets you study science broadly — chemistry, physics, biology, materials science, and related fields — at university level. Unlike a specialized honours program in a single science, this one gives you flexibility to explore multiple areas before focusing deeper. The co-op option lets you alternate study terms with paid work in science-related industries. It suits students who are strong in math and sciences but not yet sure which direction to specialize in, or who want practical work experience alongside their degree.	You study how the mind and body work together, and how social and environmental factors shape health. This program pairs psychology courses with practical training in areas like human biology, health policy, and social work. The co-op option lets you do paid work terms at healthcare or research settings alongside your studies. It suits people curious about mental health, public health, or how systems support people's wellbeing.
