Science and Engineering – Biophysics | Print | |
This is an interdisciplinary Specialized Honours program requiring coursework and practical experience in physics, biology, chemistry, mathematics and computer science. The focus of the program is on applying laws and methods of physics to understand biological processes. i) All Honours BSc degree candidates must complete the program core: ii) All Honours BSc degree candidates must comply with general regulation 4 (refer to the Faculty of Science and Engineering Regulations Governing Undergraduate Degree Requirements section) by completing the following, in addition to the courses from the program core: - SC/MATH 1013 3.00; SC/MATH 1014 3.00; SC/MATH 1025 3.00;
- SC/CSE 1520 3.00 or SC/CSE 1540 3.00;
- 12 general education credits (refer to General Education Requirements in the Faculty of Science and Engineering Regulations Governing Undergraduate Degree Requirements section).
iii) All Honours BSc degree candidates, in accordance with their declared programs, must comply with general regulation 6 (refer to the Faculty of Science and Engineering Regulations Governing Undergraduate Degree Requirements section) and in so doing must satisfy the course, credit and standing requirements. 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.
