Life Sciences and Physical Sciences are two of the entry points in the Faculty of Science for first-year students. Life Sciences programs include Biochemistry, Biology, Biomedical Sciences (regular only), and Psychology. Physical Sciences programs include Chemistry, Earth Sciences, Life Physics, Materials and Nanosciences, Mathematical Physics, Medicinal Chemistry (co-op only), Physics and Astronomy, and Physics. Students selecting one of these two entry points will be moved to the program they listed as their Subject of Major Interest on their Ontario Universities' Applicant Centre (OUAC) application, unless they indicated Psychology. These students stay in Life Sciences for first year because Psychology is a second-year entry program.
Environmental Science, Science and Aviation, and Science and Business, are three direct program entry points for first-year students. Students selecting one of these three entry points will be moved into the specialization they listed as their Subject of Major Interest on their OUAC application.
The remaining programs are direct entry points: Biotechnology/Chartered Professional Accountancy and Honours Science.
