  • SBI4U
  • One 4U Math
  • Strongly recommended subjects: PSE4U or PSK4U, MHF4U
  • See Ontario high school course codes.
  • Alternative Offers
  • You will receive an offer of admission to only 1 program. Your highest listed choice is considered first when you indicate more than 1 Brock program on your application. If you are not eligible for your first choice, your subsequent choices will be considered in your indicated order of preference. In most cases: If you apply to only 1 Brock program but do not qualify, you will be considered for an alternative or related program. If you apply but are not admitted to a co-op program, you will automatically be considered for the regular, non-co-op program.

What this leads to

The picture for biological sciences as of 2026-08-17, not a description of this particular program.

Most graduates start as research technicians or lab associates in government agencies (Environment and Climate Change Canada, Fisheries and Oceans), hospitals, or biotech companies, preparing samples and entering data. With a master's degree, you move into positions like biologist or ecology technician doing actual research on wildlife, fisheries, or environmental issues.

In its favour

  • Federal government biology positions pay $72,500–$150,000 depending on level, with job security and benefits hard to find elsewhere.
  • If you add programming or data analysis skills, you're in demand—AI-related biology roles are expected to grow over 40% by 2028.
  • The work often involves fieldwork and real problem-solving on things like fisheries management or conservation, not just lab drudgery.

Worth knowing

  • Entry-level work is heavily repetitive: sample prep, data entry, logging specimens. This is exactly what robotic automation and AI are replacing fastest.
  • Nearly 40% of routine lab tasks could be automated in the next decade; technician roles are being hit hardest right now.
  • Most meaningful research roles (biologist level) require a master's degree minimum. A bachelor's alone leaves you stuck in automating-away positions.
  • Entry-level pay out of high school is low: research technicians start around $41–$56K, and many positions have slow advancement without further credentials.

How AI is changing this work

The split is real. Routine lab work—sample prep, data entry, quality checks—is already being automated and will keep shrinking. But analysing data, designing experiments, interpreting results, and fieldwork that requires judgment are not being replaced yet. If you plan to just do entry-level lab work without upgrading your skills, you're betting on a shrinking pool. If you learn data analysis or programming alongside biology (or pursue grad school), you're moving into roles that AI creates rather than kills. The field itself isn't vanishing, but the jobs that don't require either advanced education or computational skills are.
