The Human Biology Programs are available to students entering their second year
of study, and consists of three Specialist programs and one Major program
leading to an Honours B.Sc. degree. The goal of each program is to provide
a multi-disciplinary education focused on an area of biological science relevant
to humans. Each program emphasizes courses from the life sciences, but includes
social sciences and humanities. The Specialist programs are: Genes, Genetics
and Biotechnology; Global Health; Health and Disease; and Human Behavioural
Biology. Each program will allow students to study an area in depth while
maintaining flexibility of course selection.
Humans are first and foremost
animals, living organisms. As such, they share fundamental characteristics
with all life - structure, chemistry, control mechanisms, behaviour,
an ecological context, and an evolutionary history. Thus the study of human
biology must
entail a sound knowledge of basic life science. But humans have also
developed unique characteristics, emergent properties, arising from their
highly complex
brains - their intricate behaviour, communication and conceptual abilities,
and social structures. So a fuller appreciation of their biology also
needs an understanding drawn from disciplines such as psychology, anthropology,
and sociology.
The Human Biology Programs are designed to do this. Students will
receive a solid foundation in life science courses together with insights
from
the humanities and social sciences. The programs are intended to provide
a broad education rather than an intensive focus in a specific discipline.
Graduates will be equipped to pursue further study in areas such as
health sciences, biotechnology, law, education, and administration,
and will
have a broad range of skills to take with them into the job market
(check our web site at http://www.hmb.utoronto.ca for more career paths).
The first year for both Genes, Genetics and Biotechnology and the
Health and Disease programs consists of 100-level courses in Biology, Chemistry
and either Calculus or Physics, plus an introductory course in one
of Anthropology, Philosophy, Psychology, Social Geography, or Sociology.
You are strongly recommended to take both calculus and physics in
either
first or second year. Both are important for higher-level life science
courses and other life science programs. The first year for Human
Behavioural Biology is similar in requiring biology and chemistry, but students
will
need introductory courses in calculus and psychology for this program.
The first year of the Global Health program consists of a biology
and
physical science core and establishes and environment or resources
management stream, complemented by a social science or humanities
course.
In both the Genes, Genetics and Biotechnology and the Health and
Disease programs, the choice of anthropology, psychology or sociology
courses
in the first year should be influenced by which of these areas
students want to pick courses from in the upper years.
Each of the four programs has core half-courses in second and third
years tailored to meet the specific needs of its students. These
courses concentrate
on an
area important to the program theme, and/or emphasize the interdisciplinary
nature of the program theme by showing connections between its different
subject areas. Each program requires a laboratory half course at
the 300 level; students
may take either the appropriate HMB lab course, or one of the others
listed. To complete the program, students will be able to choose
from a range of
options in third and fourth years, depending on their interests
and which courses students
have already taken, as well as availability. Options include 400-level
advanced seminar courses and advanced research “project” courses.
The Human Biology Programs also include a Life Science Major, which
provides a foundation of study in the life sciences. This program
builds on a background
in biology, chemistry and a choice of psychology, physics or mathematics.
The upper years provide exposure to several disciplines within the
life sciences. Students acquire a broad knowledge base which
is valuable not
only for those
intending to pursue a career in science, but also for those with
career interests in other areas such as business or education. For further
