Suggested minors (see Note 5 above):
Students enrolled in the Health Sciences program may apply for the Co-op and Management Options.
Co-op provides an opportunity for students to integrate their academic studies with work experience in participating organizations. Admission to this limited enrolment program is competitive and is based on academic record, recent work and volunteer experience, extracurricular activities and interview performance. Science co-op students normally complete two work terms of at least 10 weeks each, usually in the summers following their second and third years.
The Management Option provides fundamental training in key areas of business such as the theories and process of management, marketing, finance, accounting, organizational behaviour, microeconomics and macroeconomics.
Students may be admitted to Health Sciences with the Management Option or may register for the Management Option at the end of their first or second year.
To learn more about these options, consult the Undergraduate Calendar.
