About Bachelor of Health Sciences (Honours) - Health and Aging (EW)
Program Description
Approximately 325 first-year students join the Health Sciences program each fall and take a common set of first-year courses that introduce them to the diverse areas of health that impact people around the globe. These courses, in addition to a series of electives, help students identify areas of interest before selecting a module/specialization prior to entering second year. First year Courses include Personal Determinants of Health, Social Determinants of Health, Determinants of Resilience and Wellbeing, and Biology for Science.
Canada is currently experiencing a shift in demographics. For the first time in our nation’s history, seniors now outnumber children. This shift significantly affects the healthcare system, and means that there is tremendous career potential for those who wish to working with aging adults. The Honours Specialization in Health and Aging provides students with the knowledge they need to understand the health issues of older adults, as well as the effects on health care services. Students who graduate from this module will be well-equipped to work in programs and services geared toward older adults, and also to address systemic challenges.
NOTE: Please note the English scores listed are minimum requirements. Meeting the minimums does not guarantee admission. Students with low English scores may be admitted to the English BOOST Program, a 9 week training program for conditional admission to their chosen program.
