The Bio-Medical Sciences major provides students with a broad and integrated foundational overview of human and animal health through the study of function (biochemistry and physiology), structure (anatomy and histology), and paraclinical sciences (epidemiology and pharmacology). Through the use of electives, students may structure a program emphasizing reproductive biology, nutritional sciences, or principles of health and disease prevention. Students have the capacity to plan, conduct and analyze their own research project within their studies. The program prepares students well for more advanced studies or applied training in many health-related fields including clinical practice, business, government, research and education. In addition, this program is designed to partially meet the current requirements for entry into medical schools in Ontario, as well as entry into the DVM program of the Ontario Veterinary College.
