The Honours Bachelor of Health Sciences program is defined by its integrative approach for studying health. Students are provided with a biosciences background, knowledge of quantitative and qualitative methodologies, along with an interdisciplinary approach to study the determinants of health. This unique academic program allows students to discover innovative ways to examine, measure and unravel complex health problems at all life stages, in Canada and around the world.
The Integrative Health Biosciences option will provide students with advanced knowledge and research approaches to investigate the cellular and molecular processes that underlie the life-trajectory. Upon completion of this option students will be able to integrate molecular and (patho)physiological concepts and design research in the field health biosciences.
Graduates will be well-prepared to undertake health-related MSc programs or pursue careers in public or private health agencies, non-governmental health organizations or in community health programs. Students are provided with the necessary foundation for further studies in medicine, rehabilitation studies, dentistry, or pharmacy. Our interdisciplinary focus enhances the quality and maturity of future clinicians and health professionals.
This program is offered in English and in French.
