Health Sciences

Everybody deserves to be healthy no matter who they are or where they live. Time to level the field.

Taught by researchers and professors who are leaders in their field, you’ll take a “cell to society” approach to human health. Learn how biological and social factors impact everything from cancer to addiction, and from infectious diseases to aging.

Study physiology, biology, chemistry, social determinants of health, epidemiology, and health systems and policy to get the full picture necessary to address health problems big and small.

Throughout your degree, you'll get to work on real-world projects, learn how to analyze health data and research studies, and pursue exciting co-op terms. You can feel confident that what you learn will prepare you for the field. Once you graduate, you’ll be ready to pursue further studies – like medical school or occupational therapy – or jump right into the field in areas like policy analysis, health research, and public health administration.

Studying the many factors that impact our health is crucial – it's not just genetics and biology that determine whether we get sick or live long, healthy lives. In addition to understanding the science behind human health, you’ll learn how taking a proactive approach to health care can save lives before they’re even at risk.
