Chemistry i) All BSc and BSc Honours degree candidates (exception noted below) 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 (may not be required in some Honours Double Major programs). ii) All BSc and BSc Honours degree candidates must comply with general regulation 4 (see the Faculty of Pure and Applied Science Regulations Governing UndergraduateDegree Requirements section of this Calendar) by completing the following (in addition to SC/CHEM 1000 3.0 and SC/CHEM 1001 3.0 from the program core):
iii) All BSc and BSc Honours degree candidates, in accordance with their declared programs, must comply with general regulation 5 or 6 (see the Faculty of Pure and Applied Science Regulations Governing Undergraduate Degree Requirements section of this Calendar) and, in so doing, must also satisfy the course, credit and standing requirements specified below. Bachelor Program To Graduate in a Bachelor Program. For students admitted to York University for 2001-2002 and subsequent years, the Senate of York University requires a minimum overall grade point average of 4.0 (C) in order to be eligible to graduate with a BSc degree (bachelor program).
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 (C+) over all courses completed, subject to the exceptions in the notes below. To proceed in each year of an Honours program requires a minimum cumulative credit-weighted grade point average of 5.0 (C+) over all courses completed, subject to the exceptions in the notes 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 (C+) over all courses completed, subject to the exceptions in the notes below. Notes: 1. In addition, a minimum cumulative credit-weighted grade point average of 6.0 (B) over all science (SC) courses completed is required to declare, proceed and graduate in (i) the Honours Double Major program where biology is the other major, and (ii) the Honours Major/Minor program where biology is the major. (The minimum 6.0 (B) science grade point average is not required where biology is the minor.) 2. 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. Specialized Honours Program
In the applied chemistry area, the Department of Chemistry offers a Specialized Honours Program Stream in Atmospheric Chemistry (see separate entry in the Faculty of Pure and Applied Science Programs of Study section of this Calendar) and a Specialized Honours Program Stream in Pharmaceutical and Biological Chemistry. In addition, students may develop a concentration in analytical chemistry, or materials chemistry, for which they should consult the Department of Chemistry on course selection. Specialized Honours Program Stream in Pharmaceutical and Biological Chemistry A degree program stream of interest as an entry into the field of pharmaceutical (medicinal) chemistry, or for those wishing to explore biologically relevant topics and issues from a chemical perspective. It is suitable for employment in the pharmaceutical and related industries, and in government laboratories, as well as for graduate work in areas of biological chemistry, incuding medicinal chemistry and structural biology.
Honours Double Major Program Possible subject combinations are listed under Undergraduate Degree Programs in the Faculty of Pure and Applied Science Undergraduate Degree and Certificate Programs section of this Calendar. Information on recommended course combinations suitable for Honours Double Major programs in chemistry and other science disciplines may be obtained from the department office. Early planning of courses in an Honours Double Major program is strongly advised so that the necessary prerequisites for courses in both departments are met. Honours Double Major programs are necessarily highly demanding and should not be considered by any student without an average academic performance of B grade or better. All Honours Double Major programs require an overall total of at least 120 credits, including at least 90 credits from science courses and at least 42 credits at the 3000 or higher level. In the applied chemistry area, the Department of Chemistry and the Department of Earth and Atmospheric Science offer an Honours Double Major Program Stream in Atmospheric Chemistry (see separate entry in the Faculty of Pure and Applied Science Programs of Study section of this Calendar). Honours Major/Minor Program An Honours Major in chemistry may be combined with an Honours Minor in another subject area in a BSc Honours Major/Minor degree program. Possible subject combinations are listed under Undergraduate Degree Programs in the Faculty of Pure and Applied Science Undergraduate Degree and Certificate Programs section of this Calendar.
Honours Major (for Honours Major/Minor Programs)
Note: The following courses are required as prerequisites or corequisites for the chemistry courses above: SC/MATH 1013 3.0; SC/MATH 1014 3.0; SC/ PHYS 1410 6.0 or SC/PHYS 1010 6.0. Honours Minor
Note: Some 2000-level chemistry courses require mathematics and physics courses as prerequisites or corequisites. Careful planning is required to ensure that prerequisites for the 2000- and higher-level chemistry courses in which the student is interested are completed. |
