Undergraduate Degree Programs

Honours Bachelor of Applied Science [BASc Honours] Program, which requires at least four years of full-time study and at least 120 credits, and involves study in one of four engineering streams: Computer Engineering, Engineering Physics, Geomatics Engineering or Space Engineering.

Honours Bachelor of Science [BSc Honours] Programs, which are usually completed in four years of full-time study, require at least 120 credits and may involve varying degrees of concentration in one or two declared subject areas:

• Specialized Honours with one declared major in Applied Mathematics, Biology, Chemistry, Computer Science, Earth and Atmospheric Science, Environmental Science, Geography, Kinesiology and Health Science, Mathematics, Physics and Astronomy, Psychology or Statistics;

• Honours Double Major (intra-Faculty; formerly Combined Honours - before 1999-2000) with declared Science majors in two of Applied Mathematics, Biology, Chemistry, Computer Science, Earth and Atmospheric Science, Geography (in combination with Earth and Atmospheric Science only), Kinesiology and Health Science, Mathematics, Physics and Astronomy, Psychology, Statistics; (Note: some combinations may require more than 120 credits.)

• Honours Double Major (Science/Arts inter-Faculty) with a declared Science major in Earth and Atmospheric Science or Physics and Astronomy; and a declared Arts major in one of Anthropology, Classical Studies, Classics, East Asian Studies, Economics, English, French Studies, German, Greek, History, Humanities, Italian, Latin, Linguistics, Philosophy, Political Science, Religious Studies, Russian, Science and Society, Sociology, Spanish, Women's Studies; (Note: choice of majors is subject to timetabling constraints. Some combinations may require more than 120 credits.)

• Honours Major/Minor (intra-Faculty) with a declared Science major in one of Applied Mathematics, Biology, Chemistry, Computer Science, Earth and Atmospheric Science, Kinesiology and Health Science, Mathematics, Physics and Astronomy, Psychology, Statistics; and a declared Science minor in one of Applied Mathematics, Biology, Chemistry, Computer Science, Earth and Atmospheric Science, Kinesiology and Health Science, Mathematics, Physics and Astronomy, Psychology, Statistics; (Note: major/minor combinations with the major and minor in the same subject area are not permitted.)

• Honours Major/Minor (Science/Arts inter-Faculty) with a declared Science major in one of Biology, Chemistry, Earth and Atmospheric Science, Physics and Astronomy; and a declared Arts minor in one of Anthropology, Classical Studies, Classics, East Asian Studies, Economics, English, French Studies, German, Greek, History, Humanities, Italian, Latin, Linguistics, Philosophy, Political Science, Religious Studies, Russian, Sociology, Spanish, Women's Studies; (Note: choice of major and minor is subject to timetabling constraints.)

• Honours Major/Minor (Science/Environmental Studies inter-Faculty) with a declared Science major in one of Biology, Chemistry, Earth and Atmospheric Science, Physics and Astronomy; and a declared minor in Environmental Studies;

• Honours Major/Minor (Science/Fine Arts inter-Faculty) with a declared Science major in one of Biology, Chemistry, Computer Science, Earth and Atmospheric Science, Kinesiology and Health Science, Mathematics, Physics and Astronomy; and a declared Fine Arts minor in one of Dance, Film & Video, Fine Arts Cultural Studies, Music, Theatre, Visual Arts; (Note: choice of major and minor is subject to timetabling constraints.)

• Honours Science with no declared major, for the student who wishes to enrol in a broader range of courses at the 3000 and 4000 levels than can normally be undertaken in Specialized Honours, Honours Double Major or Honours Major/Minor programs.

Bachelor of Science [BSc] Programs, which are usually completed in three years of full-time study, require at least 90 credits and usually involve limited concentration in only one declared subject area:

• Bachelor with one declared major in Applied Mathematics, Biology, Chemistry, Computer Science, Earth and Atmospheric Science, Geography, Mathematics, Physics and Astronomy, Psychology or Statistics;

• Bachelor in General Science with no declared major, open only to Science students coregistered in the Faculty of Education Junior-Intermediate program who are declaring Science as their teaching subject.
