Looking for GEOG (Geography) or RELIGST (Religious Studies) courses?

  • The subject ENVSOCTY has replaced GEOG
  • The subject SCAR has replaced RELIGST

Please use the revised subject area when searching for courses. Most courses use the same code but with the revised subject area (e.g. GEOG 3MA3 is now known as ENVSOCTY 3MA3).

  2. Many Art courses are open only to students registered in a program in Studio Art. However, the following Art courses are open to students enrolled in any program:
  3. Studio Art courses may involve field trips off campus.
  4. All students taking Studio Art Courses must wear CSA approved steel-toed footwear in the studio at all times.

  7. Students wishing to obtain a Minor in Art History should note that six, and only six, of the Art History units required in the Honours Studio Art program may be counted toward the Minor of 24 units.

Courses

Students who wish to enroll in Level I Art courses must be registered in the Studio Art 1 program which leads into the Honours Studio Art program and a Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA Honours) degree. The Honours Studio Art program is a limited enrolment program for which entrance requires the permission of the School of the Arts and a successful portfolio interview. The portfolio should contain a variety of works in different media that represent the applicant’s creative abilities and interests. Aptitude in art, academic ability and demonstrated commitment to the discipline are considered in the selection process.

In exceptional circumstances, where distance does not allow for an interview, portfolios may be submitted in the form of electronic digital images or photographs. Portfolio interviews occur between January and April each year for entrance in September of the same calendar year. Only those students who call the Office of the School of the Arts (905-525- 9140, ext. 27671) before March 1st to book appointments for portfolio interviews will be guaranteed consideration for entrance into the Level I Art program. (Late applicants will only be interviewed if space availability permits).
