Atmospheric Chemistry (Applied Science Streams)

The Department of Chemistry and the Department of Earth and Atmospheric Science offer degree program streams in Atmospheric Chemistry. Both programs of study are particularly demanding and will be of interest to students with academic performances of B grade or better.

i) All BSc Honours degree candidates must complete the program core (normally before proceeding to 3000- or higher-level courses): SC/CHEM 1000 3.0; SC/CHEM 1001 3.0; SC/CHEM 2010 3.0; SC/CHEM 2011 3.0; SC/CHEM 2020 6.0; SC/CHEM 2030 4.0; SC/CHEM 2080 4.0; SC/EATS 2010 3.0; SC/MATH 2015 3.0; SC/MATH 2270 3.0.

ii) All BSc Honours degree candidates must comply with general regulation 4 (Science section IV) by completing the following (in addition to SC/CHEM 1000 3.0 and SC/CHEM 1001 3.0 from the program core):

• SC/COSC 1540 3.0;
• SC/EATS 1011 3.0 (Honours Double Major stream only);
• SC/MATH 1013 3.0; SC/MATH 1014 3.0; SC/MATH 1025 3.0;
• SC/PHYS 1010 6.0*;
• 12 general education credits (see "General Education Requirements" in Science section IV).

*Note: SC/PHYS 1410 6.0 with a minimum grade of C may replace SC/PHYS 1010 6.0.

iii) All BSc Honours degree candidates, in accordance with their declared programs, must comply with general regulation 6 (Science section IV) and, in so doing, must also satisfy the course, credit and standing requirements specified below.

Honours Programs

To declare Honours requires successful completion of at least 24 credits and a minimum cumulative credit-weighted grade point average of 5.0 over all courses completed, subject to the exception in the note below.

To proceed in each year of an Honours program requires a minimum cumulative credit-weighted grade point average of 5.0 over all courses completed, subject to the exception in the note below.

To graduate in an Honours program requires successful completion of all Faculty requirements and departmental required courses and a minimum cumulative credit-weighted grade point average of 5.0 over all courses completed, subject to the exception in the note below.

Note: students admitted to York University prior to 1999-2000 may declare Honours and proceed and graduate in Honours programs according to the academic standards of the year in which they were admitted.
