Earth and Atmospheric Science - Science and Engineering Note: The following BSc and BSc Honours degree requirements do not apply to students in the space science stream of Specialized Honours in earth and atmospheric science (see Space Science in the Faculty of Science and Engineering Programs of Study section of this calendar) or the atmospheric chemistry stream of Honours Double Major in earth and atmospheric science and chemistry (see Atmospheric Chemistry in the Faculty of Science and Engineering Programs of Study section of this calendar). i) With the exceptions noted above, all BSc and BSc Honours degree candidates must complete the EATS program core: SC/CSE 1540 3.00; SC/EATS 2030 3.00; SC/EATS 2470 3.00; SC/MATH 1013 3.00; SC/MATH 1014 3.00; SC/MATH 1025 3.00; SC/MATH 2015 3.00; SC/MATH 2271 3.00; SC/PHYS 1010 6.00; SC/PHYS 2020 3.00; SC/PHYS 2211 1.00. ii) All BSc and BSc Honours degree candidates must comply with general regulation 4 (see the Faculty of Science and Engineering Regulations Governing Undergraduate Degree Requirements section of this calendar) by completing the following (in addition to the EATS 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 Science and Engineering 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. A minimum overall grade point average of 4.00 (C) is required in order to be eligible to graduate with a BSc degree (bachelor program).
Honours Programs 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 5.00 (C+) over all courses completed, subject to the exception in the note below. Note: In addition, a minimum cumulative credit-weighted grade point average of 6.00 (B) over all biology (BIOL) 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 6.00 (B) biology grade point average is not required where biology is the minor.) Honours Cores The atmospheric science Honours core requires the following in addition to the EATS program core: SC/EATS 1011 3.00; SC/EATS 2010 3.00; SC/EATS 3030 3.00; SC/EATS 3040 3.00; SC/EATS 4050 3.00; SC/EATS 4051 3.00; SC/EATS 4120 3.00; SC/EATS 4130 3.00; SC/EATS 4140 3.00; SC/EATS 4230 3.00; SC/MATH 3241 3.00.

Plus either: a) SC/EATS 2050 4.00; SC/EATS 3010 2.00; SC/EATS 3011 1.00; SC/EATS 3180 3.00; SC/EATS 4010 6.00 (for applied geophysics emphasis) or b) SC/EATS 3610 4.00; SC/EATS 3620 4.00; SC/EATS 3650 4.00; SC/EATS 4610 3.00 (for geomatics emphasis). Specialized Honours Program
Atmospheric Science Stream
Earth Science Stream
Note: Entry by current earth science students into any courses in the applied geophysics emphasis is restricted, requiring written permission of the Chair of the Department of Earth and Space Science and Engineering. The Department of Earth and Space Science and Engineering also offers a BSc Specialized Honours degree stream in space science whose degree requirements are specified in a separate entry in the Faculty of Science and Engineering Programs of Study section of this calendar. Honours Double Major Program and Honours Major/Minor Programs An Honours Major in earth and atmospheric science may be combined with an Honours Major in another subject area in a BSc Honours Double Major degree program, or 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 Science and Engineering Undergraduate Degree and Certificate Programs section of this calendar. Further information on course selection for various Honours Double Major programs is detailed in the departmental handbook. All degree candidates should contact departmental advisers as early as possible regarding course requirements for particular Honours Double Major and Honours Major/Minor programs. Early planning of courses is strongly advised so that the necessary prerequisites for courses in both departments are met.
In cooperation with the Department of Chemistry, the department offers an Honours Double Major program stream in the applied science area of atmospheric chemistry - see separate entry in the Faculty of Science and Engineering Programs of Study section of this calendar. Honours Major An Honours Major in earth and atmospheric science may be taken in either the atmospheric science stream or the earth science stream. Atmospheric Science Stream
Earth Science Stream
Honours Minor
Note: The following courses are required as prerequisites or corequisites for the courses listed above: SC/CSE 1540 3.00; SC/MATH 1013 3.00; SC/MATH 1014 3.00: SC/MATH 1025 3.00; SC/MATH 2015 3.00; SC/MATH 2270 3.00; SC/MATH 2560 3.00 or SC/GEOG 2420 3.00; SC/PHYS 1010 6.00; SC/PHYS 2010 3.00; SC/PHYS 2020 3.00.
