i) All BSc and BSc Honours degree candidates (except those in Honours Double Major programs) must complete the program core: SC/BIOL 1000 3.00 and SC/BIOL 1001 3.00 (or SC/BIOL 1010 6.00); SC/ENVB 2050 4.00; SC/BIOL 2060 3.00; any three of SC/BIOL 2010 4.00, SC/BIOL 2020 3.00, SC/BIOL 2021 3.00, SC/BIOL 2030 4.00, SC/BIOL 2040 3.00, SC/CHEM 2020 6.00; SC/ENVB 3001 2.00 or SC/ENVB 3001 3.00, SC/BIOL 3170 3.00, SC/BIOL 4245 3.00, SC/BIOL 4255 3.00.

ii) All BSc and BSc Honours 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 SC/BIOL 1000 3.00 and SC/BIOL 1001 3.00 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 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 declare Honours requires successful completion of at least 24 credits, a minimum cumulative credit-weighted grade point average of 4.25 over all courses completed.

To proceed in each year of an Honours program requires a minimum cumulative credit-weighted grade point average as specified in the Academic Standards section of the Faculty of Science and Engineering Regulations Governing Undergraduate Degree Requirements section of this calendar.

To graduate in an Honours program requires successful completion of all Faculty requirements and departmental required courses, a minimum cumulative credit-weighted grade point average of 5.00 (C+) over all environmental biology and biology courses completed, and a minimum cumulative credit-weighted grade point average of 5.00 (C+) over all courses completed.

Note: the minimum environmental biology/biology grade point average is not required where environmental biology is the minor in an Honours Major/Minor program. Only the minimum 5.00 (C+) overall grade point average is required in that case.

Honours Major Program

Note: both SC/CHEM 1000 3.00 and SC/CHEM 1001 3.00 are required as prerequisites for SC/BIOL 2020 3.00 and SC/CHEM 2020 6.00 in the program core.

Honours Double Major Program

All BSc Honours degree candidates should consult departmental advisors as early as possible concerning course requirements for particular Honours Double Major programs. Possible subject combinations for BSc Honours Double Major degree programs are listed under Undergraduate Degree Programs in the Faculty of Science and Engineering Undergraduate Degree and Certificate Programs section of this calendar.

Honours Major/Minor Program

An Honours Major in environmental biology 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 Science and Engineering Undergraduate Degree and Certificate Programs section of this calendar.

  • The Faculty of Science and Engineering general education and 1000-level science requirements, as specified in ii) above and including courses appropriate for the minor;
  • the environmental biology Honours Major requirements above;
  • the course requirements for the minor;
  • additional elective credits, as required for an overall total of at least 120 credits, including at least 42 credits at the 3000 or higher level.

Honours Minor

An Honours minor in environmental biology may be combined with an Honours major in another subject area. 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.
