Biochemistry (Co-op) (BIOC:C)

Department of Molecular and Cellular Biology, College of Biological Science

Two Streams are available. Stream A is different from Stream B in that Stream A has a double work term following academic semester 5. The course content of semesters 1-4 is the same as that listed above for the regular Honours Program Major. Students in the Co-op program must also take COOP*1100 in the second academic semester. The total program requirements, including the selection of electives are also the same.

Students will be expected to undertake their work terms after semester 3 and completion of course CHEM*2480. Since certain courses must be taken in a different semester from usual, consult your Faculty Co-op Advisor for assistance with course selection.

To graduate from the Co-op program a minimum of 4 successfully completed work terms is normally required.
