Health Sciences
By beginning your Health Science degree at CMU, you are ensuring that a strong foundation is in place for your future. The intersectionality of this degree goes hand in hand with our common curriculum. Learn about the ‘why’ of health in society with classroom work while learning about the ‘how’ in the lab. Professors are there every step of the way to mentor and guide you, even in the lab. Through our Commons, you will develop an understanding of the human within the global health community.
Here is a sample of courses that could act as a step on your journey towards a degree in Health Science:
- BIOL-1361 Human Anatomy and Physiology I
- BIOL-1371 Human Anatomy and Physiology II
- CHEM-1010 Structure and Modelling in Chemistry
- CHEM-1020 Physical Chemistry
- INDS-1050 Indigenous Peoples of Canada
Other electives from CMU or first year courses on Letter of Permission.
The Commons: What Sets CMU Apart
Please Note
- It is important that you inquire about admission and program requirements at the universities you are considering after CMU. You should work with the Advising office at CMU to construct a program of studies that will achieve your objectives. This is the responsibility of the student.
CMU is distinguished by its vison of the Commons. The Commons is the implementation of an interdisciplinary education. This approach creates graduates that write persuasively, speak confidently, and think critically. CMU is committed not only to giving students a credential, but to inviting them into a formative experience in which they exercise their thinking within a community of real-world engagement.
The Commons means that there are certain classes that all students get to take. These classes pull from core disciplines including Making, Theology, Science, Social Science, Indigenous Studies, Anabaptist Studies, and Ways of Knowing. They allow each CMU student to hold in common with their peers throughout— and beyond, their degree.
