To plan your CMS program you must select three areas (we call them packages) of science that you wish to explore. You cannot combine subjects within a discipline. 1. Chemistry 2. Earth and Environmental Sciences 3. Life Science 4. Mathematical Sciences 4.1. Computer Science 4.2. Mathematics 4.3. Statistics 5. Physics and Astronomy 5.1. Physics 5.2....
This can be taken in third or fourth year. Three credits from a discipline not represented in your three packages. Only required for students who started in the program prior to 2019S.
In addition to completing most of the first-year courses, 12 credits of second-year (200-level) Science courses, appropriate for the three disciplines being combined, need to be completed. The 12 credits need to be spread over at least two of the three discipline areas being combined, and can include STAT200. 12 credits in just one of the packages ...
In addition to completion of all first- and second-year requirements, SCIE 300and 12 credits of upper level courses (300- or 400-level) courses, across at least two of the disciplines being combined, needs to be completed by end of Term 2.
Questions about requirements? Some of the most commonly asked questions are answered below. If you have further questions, please email Dr. Vishakha Monga.
Students wishing to combine an arts major and a science major (e.g. Chemistry and English or Biology and Political Studies): must meet all of the requirements listed above and ♦ to complete a BSc (Combined Major) primary science discipline plus secondary arts discipline
Students may select one Science specialization at the Major, Honours, Combined Major or Combined Honours level and one Arts specialization at the Major or Honours level, but may not pursue additional specializations (e.g., a second major or a minor) in either Faculty.
Current Undergraduate Students. Dual Degrees. A Dual Degree offers qualified students the opportunity to earn a Bachelor of Science and another Bachelor’s degree concurrently. Students in the BSc degree can pursue a Dual Degree in: Science and Arts (BSc and BA)
** The Major Biology can be combined with a Minor in Science, Arts or other. Biology Undergraduate Timeline. *** See Faculty of Science and Applying to Undergraduate Studies for Admissions and Application information.
