Program Overview

The one-year Pre-Health Sciences Pathway to Advanced Diplomas and Degrees is an Ontario College Certificate program that prepares you for more advanced health science programs. You develop strong study skills and earn post-secondary credits that may transfer to other postsecondary programs.

As a student, you explore your interests in the health science field while meeting the eligibility requirements for a number of Algonquin College advanced diploma programs. These include:

  • Biotechnology - Advanced
  • Cardiovascular Technology
  • Dental Hygiene
  • Massage Therapy
  • Medical Radiation Technology
  • Respiratory Therapy
  • Paramedic

The curriculum provides you with the opportunity to learn more about potential careers in the health sciences as you improve your skills in communications, mathematics, biology, chemistry and physics.

The intention of this program is to prepare you for further study in either advanced diploma or degree programs, rather than moving directly into the chosen industry. It is important to note that completing this program doesn`t guarantee entry into a health or science program.
