Faculty of Science

The curriculum emphasizes practical, hands-on, problem-solving experiences in the classroom, the lab and the field. Most programs are flexibly structured and can be tailored to fit your educational goals. Students can integrate online distance courses into their programs, ladder from a diploma program into a degree program, or receive credit for prior learning they have obtained through employment .

We have an active group of researchers investigating a broad range of subjects. One of our great strengths is that we engage undergraduates in our research early in their education.

Careers you can pursue include: medicine, veterinary medicine, medical genetics, elementary and high school teaching, resource management, high tech industry, biotechnology, optometry, pharmacy, dentistry, wildlife management or respiratory therapy. Or move on to graduate school, receiving an NSERC scholarship to continue your studies.
