Bachelor of Science (Honours) in Integrated Science with Health Science Concentration
ObjectivesThis area of study is suited for you if you are thinking of a future career in areas such as medicine, dentistry, pharmacy or veterinary medicine. You will combine a science sequence drawn from the life sciences (biology, biochemistry and chemistry, psychology) and a non-science sequence from psychology, with the option of adding other non-science areas such as ethics or business.
