What it is	Global Health is a science degree that combines the study of health systems, data analysis, and policy with real-world development work across different countries. You learn how health issues connect to poverty, education, and government decisions, and you use technology to solve health problems in low-resource settings. Co-op work terms let you gain international experience while studying, making this a good fit if you want to work on health challenges beyond Canada.	You study how societies develop, interact across borders, and address global challenges like poverty and inequality. This program combines politics, economics, and social policy rather than focusing on just one discipline. The co-op option lets you work with international organizations or NGOs between school terms, giving you practical experience alongside your coursework. It suits people curious about global issues who want to understand systems and institutions, not just volunteer or travel.	This program combines the study of how societies work — through anthropology, politics, and social policy — with practical skills in starting and running social enterprises that solve community problems. Unlike a straight business degree, it focuses specifically on ventures designed for social impact rather than profit alone. It suits people who want to understand social change deeply and turn ideas into real projects that help communities.
