Programs in Biochemistry

This section presents the requirements for the B.Sc. programs in:

• Biochemistry - B.Sc. Honours

• Computational Biochemistry - B.Sc. Honours

• Biochemistry - B.Sc. General

Requirements for the program Biochemistry and Biotechnology are presented in the Biotechnology program section of this Calendar.

Co-operative Education Option is available.

In addition to the requirements listed below, students must satisfy:

i) the University regulations (see The Academic Regulations of the Universityfor the Bachelor of Arts Degree),

ii) the Faculty regulations applying to all B.Sc. students including those relating to Science Continuation and Breadth requirements (see The Academic Regulations for the Bachelor of Science).

Students should consult with the Institute when planning their program and selecting courses.
