<ul><li>The Arts &amp; Science Program is designed to provide students with a broad-based, interdisciplinary education
 </li><li>Its curriculum has been planned with three major objectives in mind:
 <ul><li>to enable substantial work in both the arts and the sciences
 </li><li>to develop skills in writing, speaking, and critical reasoning
 </li><li>to foster the art of scholarly inquiry into issues of public concern
 </li></ul></li><li>The Arts &amp; Science Program stresses active, self-directed, and cooperative learning, with emphasis on social awareness and the development of a wide range of transferable skills
 </li><li>The Program is unique in offering an extensive integrated core curriculum, which bridges the divide between the arts and the sciences and also between academic study and social engagement
 </li><li>This is a limited enrolment, interdisciplinary program that brings students and faculty together in a lively intellectual environment conducive to collaborative learning
 </li></ul>

<ul><li>This course includes internationally and nationally recognized faculty who receive prestigious research grants and publish in top-ranked journals </li><li>Faculty includes a Canada Research Chair in Public Economic Theory, the Ontario Research Chair in Health Human Resources, the ArcelorMittal Dofasco Chair in Advanced Manufacturing Policy, the LIUNA Enrico Henry Mancinelli Professor in Global Labour Issues and the Senator William McMaster Chair in Econometrics </li><li>McMaster has excellence in research and is home to three research centres: McMaster Experimental Economics Laboratory (McEEL), Public Economics Data Analysis Laboratory (PEDAL) and Statistics Canada Research Data Centre at McMaster (RDC) </li><li>In this course, the classes held in state-of-the-art learning facilities </li><li>Economics students may find internships with the Canada Revenue Agency, Bank of Canada and a variety of related institutions of interest </li></ul>

<ul><li>McMaster’s business impact is measured by their commitment to radically transform business and society
 </li><li>As a future student, students will be the agent of transformation in the years ahead, disrupting how businesses do business and significantly expanding DeGroote School of Business’ contributions to Canadian society
 </li><li>With an emphasis on greater collaboration across faculties, minoring in sustainability, and fostering a greater sense of community, the DeGroote School of Business will best prepare students for a future in an ever-evolving world of business
 </li><li>All students will receive exposure to accounting, finance, human resource management, information systems, marketing, strategic management and operations management
 </li><li>This 5-year degree program, with a mandatory internship, is now open to all international students
 </li></ul>

<ul><li>The Bachelor of Technology (BTech) program positions students to be at the forefront of change in engineering industries
 </li><li>With a unique blend of theory and practice, students spend more than 750 hours in lab settings applying engineering principles to develop an innovative technical solution
 </li><li> Guided by industry advisory committees and taught by professors with relevant experience, each of the three BTech programs is geared to tackle technological change head-on
 </li><li>Students apply directly to their desired program:
 <ul><li>Automation Engineering Technology
 </li><li>Automotive and Vehicle Engineering Technology
 </li><li>Biotechnology
 </li></ul></li><li>Every student in the BTech program completes a minimum of 12 months of paid co-op work experience as part of their program, allowing them to hit the ground running in their career after graduation
 </li></ul>

<ul><li>Honours Computer Science is a direct-entry four-year program where students learn programming, software design, systems and theoretical foundations</li><li>In five practice and experience courses, the emphasis at McMaster is on lab-based exploration and discovery, including expanded coverage of practical topics such as profiling and tuning, and foundational topics such as operating systems and compilers</li><li>With a redesigned first-year curriculum, featuring five computer science, three math, and two electives courses, students will start gaining specialized knowledge right away and are more employable in co-op positions after the first year</li><li>By covering foundational topics earlier on, students will have space to take specialized elective courses in or outside of their field in upper years</li><li>Through this course, students will have a comprehensive focus on programming, software design, systems, and theory</li></ul>

<ul><li>This is ranked as one of the world's top engineering schools, the Faculty of Engineering plays a significant role in helping McMaster University earn its reputation as one of Canada’s most innovative universities</li><li>It offers innovative programming, both inside and outside the classroom, to inspire the students, setting them on the path to becoming tomorrow's groundbreaking thought leaders and innovators</li><li>At McMaster Engineering, students will be welcomed by a supportive community where students collaborate, motivate and inspire one another</li><li>The foundational first year, called Engineering 1, introduces students to the engineering profession, but will also provide them with a solid background in the fundamentals important to all engineering disciplines</li><li>After the completion of a full year of broad-based engineering, students will be well-positioned to select an area of specialization for their degree</li></ul>

<ul><li>Health and Society I is a limited enrollment program</li><li>This course emphasis on experiential education and research</li><li>Students learn about the social impacts of health from different perspectives, with faculty members from a variety of disciplines such as Economics, Sociology, Geography, Social Work, Political Science, and more</li><li>In the study of Health &amp; Society, experience in the field is necessary to help the students put theory and methods into practice</li><li>Students have the opportunity to take either HLTH AGE 3BB3: Field Experience or HLTH AGE 3EE3: The Practice of Everyday Life: Observations and Inquiry. Both of these courses offer students the opportunity to observe, gain experience, and interact in a community agency or institution, to augment their knowledge and understanding of health programs and policies. Alongside these opportunities, there is a focus upon active learning throughout the programs via invited speakers and discussion groups with older adult volunteers</li></ul>

<ul><li>The Bachelor of Health Sciences (Honours) Program (BHSc) uses a unique interdisciplinary approach to the study of health, wellness and illness</li><li>It offers students an understanding of health from biological, behavioural and population-based perspectives, through the integration of foundational and health sciences</li><li>The BHSc (Honours) Program is the only program in Ontario that draws on a full range of departments within health sciences, including clinical departments of Medicine, Pathology &amp; Molecular Medicine, Psychiatry &amp; Behavioural Neurosciences and Clinical Epidemiology &amp; Biostatistics</li><li>The course’s exposure to health care practitioners and applied researchers will lend relevance and scope to the foundation sciences, which will form the basis of the students’ experiences</li><li>Unique program that uses core Inquiry courses. This approach has been adopted by other programs at McMaster and universities around the world based on the work and accomplishments of the B.H.Sc Program</li></ul>
