Program Descriptions

Bonjour. Aanii. Welcome!

As you embark on this exciting postsecondary journey, it’s important to choose a university that’s right for you – a place where your dreams and aspirations will be recognized and supported, a place that nurtures who you are today and supports who you have yet to become.

You could say that Laurentian’s small class sizes and outstanding student and faculty engagement are a great place to start. You could also say that having the best record in the province when it comes to post-graduation employment is, in itself, exceptional. One might add that having the ability to study in a bilingual environment while benefiting from Indigenous thought and culture, with peers from around the world, is nothing short of outstanding.

Yet one of the best attributes of pursuing studies at Laurentian University is the ability, in most programs, to customize your degree.

Just as our students are not one-dimensional, our programs offer you the flexibility to pursue minors, majors and concentrations in fields that add value to your credentials or for which you have a shared passion. It’s all about allowing you to hone your area of expertise, to explore niche qualifications uniquely suited to a future in which you will thrive. What’s more, experential learning opportunities abound on and off campus for you to put those newly acquired skills to the test.

Faculty of Arts...................................................62 Faculty of Education..........................................80 Faculty of Health...............................................84 Faculty of Management....................................92 Faculty of Science, Engineering and Architecture...............................................96 Northern Ontario School of Medicine (NOSM)...........................................................117

Academic success and overall well-being are intertwined in our efforts to create a balanced approach to education. Your journey is important to us. Moreover, it’s important to all of society as collectively, it will shape our future. We view this responsibility as a great privilege and strive to fully support student achievement.

Ontario University Athletics (OUA) is the regional member of U SPORTS, and all Laurentian teams, with the exceptions of Nordic skiing, Golf, Baseball, Rowing, and Lacrosse, compete for U SPORTS championships.

All teams compete in the OUA conference with the exception of Lacrosse, which competes in the Canadian University Field Lacrosse Association (CUFLA).

Bilingualism at the forefront In Sudbury, French is the first language of almost one third of the population.

At Laurentian, 19% of the student population pursue their studies in French. As such, the learning environment is ideal for Francophones, Francophiles and Anglophones to improve and enhance their language skills in both of Canada’s official languages. Laurentian also offers you the unique opportunity to complement your degree with a Certificate of Bilingualism that you can obtain free of charge. To do so, you need to plan your studies and acquire a minimum of 15 credits in courses offered in English or French – whichever is not your language of study – during your program of study at Laurentian University.

Sudbury selected as a Welcoming

FR NCOPHONE COMMUNITY!

May 22, 2019

Sudbury has been selected as a Welcoming Francophone Community as part of the Government of Canada’s Action Plan for Official Languages."

There is a definite francophone reality in Sudbury that is prevalent. Some pockets of the city such as le Moulin à fleur and several suburbs such as Val Thérèse, Hanmer, Azilda, Chelmsford and others thrive on their rich francophone heritage.

With deep pride for our francophone roots, Laurentian became the first bilingual university to obtain partial designation under Ontario’s French-Language Services Act on July 1, 2014.

This designation symbolizes the University’s efforts to support the growth and development of its francophone students.

Therefore, don’t hesitate to request services in French wherever you may be at Laurentian!

Studying abroad in Austria was a most rewarding component of my university experience.

1,000+ students with international experience

Your university experience will be enriched by the multicultural aspects of our campus: networking, study abroad opportunities, new friendships, language classes, international conferences, events, celebrations and more.

It allowed me to leave my comfort zone, live differently and gain an appreciation for foreign cultures. European transportation is so straightforward that it was very easy to travel to countless cities in different countries. As a business student, one comes to expect that commerce is the same worldwide, but when you find yourself in European markets, you experience first hand how differently businesses operate in other countries.

160 partner institutions for exchange

Thanks to the LUGO department, I was able to return to Laurentian with a more global perspective. I now have the privilege of having lifelong friends worldwide.

You can visit as many webpages as you like, read all the books you can find, but nothing beats travelling to faraway cities to experience a new way of life. That’s something you just can’t learn at home. Quite frankly, I’ve never had so much fun…or gelato!”

My curiosity and passion for learning have led me to Laurentian. Biology is a fascinating discipline with a potential for discovery that we, as human beings, have barely scratched.

While my life’s path has been challenging,

taking the leap to earn my degree has been very rewarding.

PHILOSOPHY, BA (PHILOSOPHIE, B.A.)

Philosophy questions the world in which we live.

It brings us to reconsider our most deeply-rooted prejudices and beliefs. What does it mean to be human? What are my values, and what should they be? Is beauty subjective? What is the best political system in which to live? What do we know with all certainty? Philosophy pushes us to reflect on our personal and social lives. It allows us to examine and assess certain important ideas seeded in politics, morality, natural sciences, social sciences, education, religion, languages, business and law. Philosophy also improves our logical thinking, broadens our horizons and develops our analytical abilities, which are all very useful not only in any field of work, but also in daily life.

Your learning begins at Laurentian with a series of courses covering the sciences, social sciences and professional basis for professional practice. You will have many opportunities to learn and practice hands-on skills in simulation situations before you go into placements.

Midwifery placements are in practices in the Laurentian region of the province and are allocated to students by lottery. You will work alongside a midwife – if the midwife is in the clinic, you are in the clinic, if the midwife is up at 2 a.m. for a birth, so are you. You will attend births in hospital, birth centre and home settings. You need to have access to a vehicle for all placements. During placements, you will stay connected with midwifery students and faculty using Internet classrooms to continue your theoretical learning.

Graduates are eligible for registration as a Midwife in every province and territory where Midwifery is regulated. In Ontario, new graduates complete a “New Registrant’s Year” with a full caseload of clients and the support and guidance of experienced midwives. As a relatively new profession, midwifery is engaged in many initiatives to develop the profession.

Current projects include the expansion of the scope of practice, promotion of homebirth and the restoration and renewal of Indigenous midwifery.

Key features • Benefit from small class sizes, a sense of community, work placements, and a high quality clinical environment.

Northern Ontario School of Medicine – NOSM

Choose to dedicate your life to health and well-being.

MD ADMISSIONS NOSM stands for Northern Ontario School of Medicine. But did you know that the acronym NOSM also stands for “No Ordinary School of Medicine?” What does this mean for you? It means your path to becoming a health-care professional will be extraordinary. NOSM will take you beyond the lecture halls and textbooks to prepare you for a rewarding health-care career that’s sure to exceed your expectations.

As a NOSM learner, you will live and learn quite literally “all over the map,” spending time in some of the more than 90 communities across NOSM’s wider campus of Northern Ontario.

Regardless of the program you choose at NOSM, beginning in the first week of school you will discover the health-care needs of people in the North, including Indigenous, Francophone, rural, and remote populations.

Being woven into the fabric of Northern Ontario communities, you will have the opportunity to learn about the determinants of health that are relevant to the North. Gaining clinical experience under the guidance of health professionals in community hospitals, clinics, and family practices, it is hoped that these experiences will demonstrate the joys and challenges of practising in the North. Don’t just visit the incredible landscapes of the North—choose them as your classroom! Deciding where to study may possibly be one of the biggest decisions you will make. We hope that you head off the beaten path and choose No Ordinary School of Medicine.

Visit www.nosm.ca/NOSM to learn more.

HANDS-ON EXPERIENCE NOSM medical students derive considerable benefit from the School’s distributed, community-engaged learning model, spending a full forty percent (40%) of their time in offcampus placements.

Years One and Two – In the first two years of the MD program, you will spend the majority of your time in Thunder Bay and Sudbury, undertaking patient-centered, case-based, small-group learning in classrooms at Lakehead University and Laurentian University. In addition, you will experience three four-week placements in Indigenous, Francophone, and rural communities in Northern Ontario.

Year Three – In third year, you will spend eight months living and learning in one of 15 midsized communities across the North. Working in family practice clinics and hospitals with local faculty, your curriculum “walks through the door,” allowing you to learn how to improve the health of a patient and community over time.

Year Four – During your final year, you will be based at either the Thunder Bay Regional Health Sciences Centre (TBRHSC) in Thunder Bay or Health Sciences North (HSN) in Sudbury, where you will learn hospital-based medicine by completing rotations in different clinical services of the hospital. These rotations assist you in determining whether you will choose to practice family medicine or pursue a different specialty.
