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 program combines the study of how young people develop and behave with the study of how society works and institutions function. You'll examine topics like family dynamics, education systems, social inequality, and policy that affects children and youth, drawing on psychology and social work perspectives. It suits students who want to understand people and social structures in depth before moving into careers like social work, education, counselling, or community development.	You study psychology combined with applied health sciences — how human behaviour, biology, and social factors shape health and illness. Unlike a straight psychology program, this stream emphasizes practical health applications and the ability to work across healthcare and social systems. The co-op option lets you work in healthcare settings, clinics, or community agencies while studying. It suits students interested in both understanding the mind and applying that knowledge to real health problems.
