Bachelor of Medical Science (Honours) - Epidemiology and Biostatistics (ESM) at Western University : Tuition Fee: $33,526.00 CAD / Year (Scholarship Available)

Medical Sciences is a "first-entry" program into the Faculty of Science at Western. High school students interested in studying the basic medical sciences (human biology) modules at an advanced level in the BMSc Program should select MEDICAL SCIENCES on the Ontario Universities' Application Centre (OUAC). Admission to Medical Sciences is not admission to the BMSc Program. Students are registered as Medical Sciences students in Years 1 and 2, and apply to the BMSc Program when they enter Year 3. Entry into the BMSc Program is competitive and limited but admission is assured for Medical Sciences 2 students who achieve a minimum average of 80%, with no mark less than 60%, in the Year 2 courses that are specific to the student's module of interest for Year 3 BMSc.

Students will develop skills that will allow them to contribute to health policy by providing data relevant to health promotion and illness-prevention programs. Students will work with a vibrant faculty of epidemiologists, biostatisticians and physicians who are dedicated to policy-relevant research.

What are the disciplines of Epidemiology and Biostatistics?
  • Epidemiology is the discipline concerned with studying the determinants and distribution of diseases in human populations.
  • Biostatistics is the discipline that develops and discovers new statistical methods for collecting, analyzing and interpreting the data arising from medical and epidemiologic studies. 

NOTE: Please note the English scores listed are minimum requirements. Meeting the minimums does not guarantee admission. Students with low English scores may be admitted to the English BOOST Program, a 9 week training program for conditional admission to their chosen program.
