Program details
Overview
The Diploma in Arts and Science (Health Sciences: Science) at Langara College is a two-year program focused on public health, the branch of medicine studying variation in health within and between populations. The curriculum combines epidemiology with courses drawn from the arts (anthropology, psychology, sociology) and sciences (chemistry, biology, environmental science, statistics), building an interdisciplinary foundation in population health. It prepares graduates for entry-level work in health agencies or for transfer into a four-year bachelor's degree in health sciences. The program is offered full-time or part-time, with course-based prerequisites that vary by student background; applicants may need additional English coursework to meet the prerequisites of required courses. Intakes are offered in September, January, and May. Admission to the program does not guarantee registration in required courses, so students are advised to review individual course prerequisites before registering each term.
