In order to get this degree, a student must complete all of the requirements for an Honours BA plus the following requirements for the Faculty of Science with a minimum average of 60% in the required Science and Mathematics courses.
- 1.0 unit from the Faculty of Mathematics. The following cannot be counted as credits towards a joint Science degree: MATH 103, or any MTHEL or COMM courses.
- Two of the following Year One sequences*:
a) Two 100- or 200-level BIOL courses plus the associated labs;
b) CHEM 120/123 plus the associated labs;
c) EARTH 121/122 plus the associated labs;
d) One of PHYS 111, 121, 115 and One of PHYS 112, 122, 125 plus the associated labs.
- 4.0 lecture units (8 additional half unit courses) plus associated labs from Biology, Chemistry, Earth Science, Physics, or Science (except SCI 237 and 250) at the 200-, 300-, or 400-level.
- No more than 1.0 SCI unit may be used towards the joint degree.
*Note:
Any 100-level Biology courses not required to meet the First-Year Science requirement will be counted as 200-level Biology courses, except BIOL 112.
This will require a total of 7.0 lecture units (14 courses) plus any associated lab units.
A student enrolled in a Joint Honours Arts Major and Science (BA) plan can earn a minor in any of the science subjects. Thus, a student could get a "BA, Honours X and Science" or "BA, Honours X and Science (Biology Minor)", for example.
