+ One of CHEM*3870 or CHEM*4880 is required for graduation.
++ Four work terms are required for the completion of the co-op degree. It is also necessary that there be at least one work
term in each of Fall, Winter and Summer semesters. Therefore, one of the summer work terms could be missed and the student
would still graduate successfully. Whether the student completes four or five work terms, a report is required for each work
term completed. Contact the co-op faculty advisor for further details.
