About Bachelor of Science - Cosmetic Science (BSCS)
The Bachelor of Science – Cosmetic Science program is the first degree of its kind in Canada and is designed to equip you with industry-relevant skills and experience for careers in the cosmetic and personal care industry.
This innovative three-year degree program intersects elements of science and art by providing a strong foundation in core sciences, such as biology and chemistry, alongside a specialization in cosmetic product formulation, including colour cosmetics. Foundational concepts are further explored through courses in organic and analytical chemistry, as well as the anatomy and physiology of hair, skin and nails.
Through the program’s sensorial and comprehensive curriculum, you will exercise your creative skills and gain hands-on experience with raw materials and colour theory. You will learn how to design and develop cosmetic formulations — from skin care to colour cosmetics — participate in regulatory applications, oversee quality assurance and more. The curriculum also includes a focus on equity, diversity and inclusion (EDI), through the exploration and formulation of products that embrace different skin tones, conditions, genders and ages.
In addition to cosmetic product formulation, you will learn about sustainability through the study of responsible manufacturing practices and examine how these topics are addressed within the scope of marketing, social media and package design.
