Knowledge Integration

Students must take at least one of the following or a suitable substitute by departmental consent.
CS 100 Introduction to Computing through Applications
CS 115 Introduction to Computer Science 1
CS 135 Designing Functional Programs
CS 145 Designing Functional Programs (Advanced Level)

Students must take at least two MATH courses at the 100-level or a suitable substitute by departmental consent.

Students must take at least one course (including lab), to count towards Investigative Science† requirement.

Two electives†† (1.0 units)

Total of 5.0 units

Theme Course Requirements

††Theme course requirements (listed below) are to be taken in to consideration when choosing elective courses.

†Investigative Science
Students must successfully complete a minimum of 1.5 units (three courses) that include a hands-on investigative component such as field study, lab, or programming. Co‑requisite labs must be taken and passed but do not count toward the 1.5 units of investigative science. For example, KIN 100 Human Anatomy: Limbs and Trunk (0.50 units), and its co‑requisite KIN 100L Human Anatomy Lab (0.25 units) count as one course (0.50 units) for the purposes of satisfying the investigative science requirement.

The investigative science requirement cannot be satisfied with any “SCI”-labelled or “SCBUS”-labelled units.

Students are not limited to first-year courses. They can satisfy the investigative science requirement with a sequence of courses, one prerequisite to the next, such as:
EARTH 121 Introductory Earth Sciences (0.50), and
EARTH 121L Introductory Earth Sciences Laboratory (0.25)
EARTH 122 Introductory Environmental Sciences (0.50), and
EARTH 122L Introductory Environmental Sciences Laboratory (0.25)
EARTH 231 Mineralogy (0.50)

Students are not limited to courses with co-requisite labs. They can satisfy the investigative science requirement with courses that include hands-on investigative components, such as:
ANTH 355 Human Osteology
ANTH 365 Fossil Hominids
BIOL 211 Introductory Vertebrate Zoology
CS 234 Data Types and Structures
ENVS 200 Field Ecology
GEOG 165 Computer Cartography: Principles and Design
PLAN 281 Introduction to Geographic Information Systems (GIS)

Students must take at least two courses in a second language [e.g. FR 151/152 Basic French, GER 101/102 Elementary German, SPAN 101/102 Introduction to Spanish, or a suitable substitute by departmental consent].

Probability and Statistics

Students must take at least one of the following or a suitable substitute by departmental consent.
STAT 202 Introductory Statistics for Scientists
STAT 220 Probability (Non-Specialist Level)

Notes for the Bachelor of Knowledge Integration Academic Plan

1. Minimum Required Units
   Total: 20.5 units, of which up to 1.0 may be lab units.
   
2. Course Load
   No more than 2.5 units may be taken in a term without departmental approval.
   
3. Average Requirements
   Students in the Knowledge Integration Honours Regular Academic Plan must maintain an overall cumulative average (all courses) of at least 65% and a major cumulative average of at least 75%. The major cumulative average includes all INTEG-labelled and core (required) courses. All required courses must be passed. 
4. Materials and Costs
   For some courses, extra fees may be required to cover field expenses/travel costs. Statements on extra costs, where required, will be found with the course descriptions.
   
5. Restriction on number of First-Year Courses
   A student must have at least 13.5 units at the 200-level or above.
   
6. Double Counting
   A course can be used to satisfy requirements for a maximum of two credentials. Double counting of courses applies as follows: once for the plan and once for a joint honours or concurrent degree, option, minor, diploma, or specialization. There is no limit on the number of courses that may be double counted unless otherwise stated.
