Major (Honours Program)
Students may enter this major in Semester 1 or any semester thereafter. A student wishing to declare the major must consult the Faculty Advisor. 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 |
IPS*1500 | [1.00] | Integrated Mathematics and Physics I |
0.50 Arts or Social Science electives | ||
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 and 8
CHEM*3440 | [0.50] | Analytical Chemistry III: Analytical Instrumentation |
3.00 Chemistry or Biochemistry** | ||
1.50 electives* |
*selection of electives is subject to the following:
-
At least 1.00 credits must be in the Arts & Social Sciences.
-
Approval of the Faculty Advisor must be obtained for the selection of courses not listed as restrictive electives.
-
Options for an "Area of Focus" or a minor are available. Subject areas include Biochemistry, Computing and Information Science, Earth Sciences, Environmental Sciences, Mathematical Sciences, and Physics. Please consult with your Faculty Advisor for more detail.
**3.00 credits from the 3000/4000 level as follows:
-
1.50 comprising of (CHEM*3870 or CHEM*4880), (CHEM*4620 or CHEM*4630), (CHEM*4720 or CHEM*4730)
-
1.50 chosen from CHEM*3870, CHEM*4010, CHEM*4400, BIOC*4520, BIOC*4540,BIOC*4580, CHEM*4620, CHEM*4630, CHEM*4720, CHEM*4730, CHEM*4740, CHEM*4880, CHEM*4900, CHEM*4910, MCB*4050, MCB*4080, TOX*4590
Note:
-
Some of these courses may have to be taken in Semester 6.
-
Some of these courses are offered only in alternate years, and some have additional prerequisites for which the student must plan ahead, with the assistance of the faculty advisor.
Minor (Honours Program)
A minor in Chemistry consists of at least 5.00 credits including the following courses:
|
Of the additional 4.00 credits, students will select Chemistry courses (CHEM) at the 2000 level or above including a minimum of 1.00 credits at the 3000 or 4000 level. BIOC*2580 can be counted towards this specialization
