Program Description Biological science is the study of life at its most fundamental level. The foundational areas of cell biology, genetics and molecular biology, physiology, biochemistry and developmental biology are mastered in the Biological Science program.
Students can study within the Bachelor of Science (Honours) Biological Science program, or choose to specialize in Environmental Biology, Environmental Toxicology, Pharmaceutical Biotechnology, or, for those interested in pursuing medical school or related health science careers, the Life Science specialization. Specializations have common courses during the first two years, allowing for flexibility and transfer between streams.
In addition to their specialization, five-year Bachelor of Science and Management (Honours) program graduates also gain a solid foundation in the key functional areas of business and management, including finance, accounting, operations, project management and marketing. There is a wealth of opportunities for science graduates in industry, government, and in areas of applied science. The combination of a science degree and business and management education will give an added advantage to graduates in establishing careers within these practical fields.
