What it is	Neuroscience is the study of how the brain and nervous system work, from molecules to behavior. You'll take courses in human biology, chemistry, and specialized neuroscience classes to understand brain function and neurological disorders. The co-op option lets you alternate between classroom learning and paid work placements at research labs or health organizations, giving you real experience alongside your degree. This program suits students fascinated by how the brain operates and interested in hands-on research or clinical work.	This is a one-year diploma focused on how governments design and carry out policies that affect society — things like healthcare, education, welfare, and environmental rules. You study the politics behind policy decisions and learn how social policies actually get made and implemented. It suits people who already have a completed degree or college diploma and want to shift into policy work without committing to another full bachelor's degree.
