ABOUT THE PROGRAM

Health Science is a two-year pre-university DEC program that prepares students to pursue university studies in a broad range of fields relating to the health or physical sciences such as exercise science, biology, chemistry, ecology, environmental science, neuroscience, physiology, and more.

The Health Science profile, of the Science DEC, provides students with the foundations in mathematics and physics that are necessary to advance to higher education, while also providing them with in-depth knowledge of chemistry and biology.

We ensure that students are well equipped for university-level studies by training them in the fundamentals of health sciences with a focus on:

  • Organic chemistry
  • General biology
  • Multi-celled organisms

UNIQUE BILINGUAL OPTION: DEC 200.FR

At TAV College, we offer students the option of completing their general education courses in French, while completing their program-specific courses in English. For example, if you want to study in the Science program with the bilingual option, you will be able to complete all your science-related courses in English. At the same time, your general education courses – language of instruction and literature, humanities, elective courses, and physical education – will be in French. Of course, the English as a second language course will be in English.

*Note that this option is only available for our pre-university DEC programs.
