X. Degree Programs
Bachelor of Science (B.Sc.)
Nanoscience (NANO)
Administered jointly by the Department of Chemistry and the Department of Physics, College of Physical and Engineering Science.
Major (Honours Program)
The major will require the completion of 20.00 credits as indicated below.
Semester 1
| BIOL*1090 | [0.50] | Introduction to Molecular and Cellular Biology |
| CHEM*1040 | [0.50] | General Chemistry I |
| MATH*1200 | [0.50] | Calculus I |
| NANO*1000 | [0.50] | Introduction to Nanoscience |
| PHYS*1000 | [0.50] | An Introduction to Mechanics |
| Students who are lacking one 4U /grade 12 course in Biology, Chemistry or Physics must take the equivalent introductory course in first semester. The required first-year science courses in that subject should be completed according to the revised schedule of studies available at: http://www.bsc.uoguelph.ca/revisedss | ||
Semester 2
Semester 3
Semester 4
Semester 5
Semester 6
Semester 7
| NANO*4100 | [0.50] | Biological Nanomaterials |
| 2.00 electives | ||
Semester 8
| NANO*4200 | [0.50] | Topics in Nanomaterials |
| 2.00 electives | ||
* If a student wants to take PHYS*3230 in semester 5, then they must select PHYS*2320 and PHYS*2340 as electives in semester 4.
Selection of electives is subject to the following rules:
-
The student must select at least 1.00 credits in Arts or Social Science.
-
The program must include at least 6.00 science credits at the 3000 and 4000 level of which at least 2.00 must be at the 4000 level.
-
In semesters 7 and 8, the student must select to do either NANO*4900 or NANO*4910.
In completing the science requirements for the degree, some suggested complementary areas of focus are:
Chemistry: Inorganic
Chemistry: Organic
Chemistry: Physical/Analytical
Engineering
Mathematics and Statistics
Physics
