Many Honours plans may be combined within and between faculties. However, before embarking on a Joint Honours plan, it is highly recommended that students consult with the undergraduate officer of both programs. Students must meet the requirements of both plans as stated in the Calendar and should be aware that combining some Honours plans may require more than the normal number of academic terms to complete.
Students in choosing the Joint Honours plan with Geography and Environmental Management as the second major must complete 9.0 units (18 courses) in Geography (GEOG) and Environmental Studies (ENVS).
