Welcome to Bioscience Education Canada
Bioscience Education Canada (BEC) is a national non-profit charitable organization with a mandate to improve the quality of bioscience education in Canadian schools and encourage more young Canadians to pursue studies and careers of Canada's growing bioeconomy. Our mission with our partners is to build a 'made in Canada' solution to the education of young people and to better inform the public about biotechnology.
