Department of Zoology, College of Biological Science.

The Honours Fisheries Biology program allows students to undertake studies in the broad field of aquatic resources, with emphasis on the scientific foundations of fish production and management of the aquatic environment.

92-442 Experimental Ethology +

*Two or three electives.

*Lists of suggested electives should be obtained from Department of Zoology advisors.

+92-407 and 92-442 are alternatives; if 92-442 is selected, 92-407 need not be taken and vice versa.

Note:

Students may select either a program in Fisheries Biology or, in consultation with faculty and departmental advisors, choose a course of study providing for concentration in a more specialized area such as Ichthyology, Aquaculture, Limnology, Aquatic Pollution, or Fisheries Science. Students wishing a combined fish and wildlife oriented program can fulfill this objective through the use of electives. In the early semesters, students should select as electives those courses that will be needed as prerequisites for their 7th and 8th semester electives.
