| 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. | You study the science of living systems — cells, organisms, genetics, and disease — with flexible depth depending on which specialization you choose. The co-op option lets you alternate between classroom semesters and paid work terms at research labs, hospitals, or biotech companies, building real experience alongside your degree. This stream suits students drawn to biology and chemistry who want either a traditional path or the chance to test careers in health and life sciences before graduating. | Life Sciences is a broad study of how living things work, from individual cells and genetics to whole organisms and ecosystems. You'll choose a focus area like microbiology, human biology, genetics, or plant science, and take courses across biology, chemistry, and related fields. The co-op option lets you alternate study terms with paid work placements in research labs, hospitals, or biotech companies, giving you real experience alongside your degree. |

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.
