Looking for LABRST (Labour Studies) courses?

• The subject WORKLABR (Work and Labour Studies) has replaced LABRST

Please use the revised subject area when searching for courses. Most courses use the same code but with the revised subject area (e.g. LABRST 2H03 is now known as WORKLABR 2H03). Students having credit in courses using the old subject area may not take the corresponding course under the new designation.

Please note, when searching courses by “Code or Number”, an asterisk (*) can be used as a wildcard character to return mass results. For example, a “Code or Number” search of ” 2* ” can be entered returning all level II courses.
