| What it is | Biochemistry is the study of chemical reactions that happen inside living cells and organisms, combining chemistry and molecular biology. You learn how molecules like proteins and DNA work at the chemical level, which is deeper than what you'd cover in a regular biology or chemistry program. This program offers the option to do paid co-op work terms alongside your studies, giving you real laboratory and industry experience before you graduate. It suits people curious about how life works at the molecular scale and interested in hands-on work in research, pharmaceuticals, or biotechnology. | This program trains you to teach science — biology, chemistry, or computer science — at the middle and intermediate school levels in French-language schools. You earn your Bachelor of Science and teaching qualification simultaneously by combining science courses with education coursework, rather than studying science first and then adding teacher training afterward. It suits students who are fluent in French, strong in science, and committed to teaching younger students. | A Bachelor of Arts and Sciences lets you combine study in both humanities and natural sciences within one degree. Unlike most programs that require you to choose either arts or sciences, this one lets you take courses across both — for instance, pairing creative writing with chemistry, or anthropology with animal science. It suits people who are curious across multiple disciplines and want flexibility rather than specializing narrowly from the start. |
