X--Degree Programs
Department of Microbiology, College of Biological Science.
Microbiology programs are designed to give students a good understanding of microorganisms, including their diversity, physiology, genetics and ecology, and to provide the basis for further work with microbes in medicine, agriculture, industry and the environment. Students can take the B.Sc. program with a Major or a Minor in Microbiology, or combine the minor with another subject. Students would normally be admitted to either program in semester 3 but can be admitted in any semester thereafter. For admission to the Major in Microbiology program, students will need a minimum 70% average in science subjects completed at the point of entry to the program. A total of [20.00] credits is required to complete the major.
Of the 16 elective courses throughout the program, at least [2.50] must be from the Arts and Social Sciences. For the Major program, [1.50] must be selected from the list below and at least [2.00] must be from science programs. (See exception for students taking a minor in an Arts or Social Science subject.) Students in the major program should ensure that at least [1.00] of the electives are 400 level science courses.
The minor in Microbiology consists of the following [5.00] credits:
Major
Semester 1
Semester 2
Semester 3
Semester 4
Semester 5
Semester 6
Semester 7
Semester 8
