Applied and Joint Programs
Many of us learn best by doing. That’s why 91资源全集 has teamed up with other schools in Manitoba to offer joint programs that blend academic and practical experience. Several of these programs include a co-operative option, which allows you the chance to “try on” a career though work experience, improve interpersonal and employment skills, and develop valuable contacts in your field. This combination of skills and experience provides you with the flexibility you need to succeed in an ever-changing job market.

Disability Studies
Disability Studies will challenge you to think about “disability” and “ability” in new ways. Using the social model rather than the bio-medical model, the problem becomes a lack of ramps rather than the fact that someone uses a wheelchair. The focus of this interdisciplinary program is the critical analysis of disability in society. Topics to be considered include human rights, social movements, normalcy, eugenics, genetic engineering, family, sexuality, gender, aging, employment, education, and international development.

Program with CancerCare Manitoba
Radiation Therapy
Radiation Therapy involves the use of radiation (in this case, high energy x-rays) to treat the cancer cells in the body. Radiation therapy educational programs require accreditation by the Canadian Medical Association (CMA) Conjoint Committee on Accreditation. This enables graduates to access the Canadian Association of Medical Radiation Technologists (CAMRT) National Certification Examinations. Such certification is recognized as the minimal practice standard by all provinces, and requires a combination of completion of an accredited course of study, as provided by this 4-year B.Sc. degree, and passing of the national certification examination. Graduates of this 4-year B.Sc. degree may also access the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists examinations for the U.S. This is a joint diploma/degree program with CancerCare Manitoba (CCMB) and leads to a Bachelor of Science degree (4year) from 91资源全集.
