X. Degree Programs

Bachelor of Science (B.Sc.)

Chemistry (Co-op) (CHEM:C)

Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, College of Physical and Engineering Science.

Major (Honours Program)

The major will require the completion of 20.25 credits as indicated below.

The course content of semesters 1 to 3 is the same as listed in the regular Honours Program Major.

To graduate from the Co-op program a minimum of 4 successfully completed work terms is normally required. These can be taken as four single work terms (Stream A), or as a double work term between two single work terms (Stream B).

Stream A: single work term option
