Program Description
If you enjoy biology and physics and want a career in medical technology or health research, Life Physics at Waterloo is for you. Run by the Department of Physics and Astronomy — one of the largest and most innovative physics departments in Canada — this flexible and interdisciplinary program is based on a solid foundation of physics, chemistry, and biology. Not to mention that students have the opportunity to gain paid work experience through their co-op streams. You’ll enjoy small classes, hands-on labs, and the opportunity to get involved in research and teaching. Join a program that fosters curious minds to question the smallest particles, the largest forces, and everything in between.
