In order to graduate in Honours Co-operative Science and Business, with no specialization, the following requirements must be met:
- Successful completion of at least 21.5 units. Of the 21.5 units required: At least 19.5 must be lecture units. 12.5 units must be Faculty of Science units, of which 2.5 units are "SCBUS"-labelled units. At least 6.0 of the 12.5 must be at or above the 200-level. At least 3.0 of the 6.0, non-"SCBUS" units, must be at the 300-or 400-level. 1.0 unit is MATH 127/128.
- The following courses must be included:

Year 4B (Winter)
Core Science** (1.5 units)
Electives* (1.0 units)
*Electives – Of these four electives, one is a free elective, one must be a business elective, and the remaining two must be either business electives or Core Science courses. Business electives are normally chosen from the following: ACTSC 231, 446, ECON 220, 361, 372, HRM 200, 301, MSCI 311, 432, STAT 231, 333. HRM 200 and MSCI 311 are recommended. Other courses may be used as substitutes on approval of the Undergraduate Advisor.
Students can emphasize finance in their program by electing and/or substituting the following set of courses in meeting the Business requirements: STAT 230, 231, 333, ACTSC 231, 446, ECON 372. Course sequencing and prerequisite information is available at the Science and Business Office.
** At least one of the following pairs of Core Science courses must be taken by the end of the 2B term:
EARTH 121/121L and EARTH 122/122L
PHYS 121/121L and PHYS 122/122L
BIOL 1.0 lecture unit (100- or 200-level, not 112)
Core Science includes Biology, Chemistry, Earth Science, and Physics courses, but not "SCI"-labelled courses. BIOL 112 cannot be used towards Science and Business plans. NOTE: Any 100-level Biology courses not required to meet the First Year-Science requirement will be counted as 200-level Biology courses. 200-level Biology courses used to satisfy First-Year Science requirements may not be reused to satisfy upper year requirements.
Note
Year-One Chemistry, Earth Sciences, and Physics courses must be taken with corresponding labs. For students taking Biology courses, the labs are recommended but not required. Students should note, however, that some upper year courses may require labs as prerequisites.
