from the following courses, where an average of at least 6.0 (between the courses) is required 6 units
from
- the Science I Course List (See Admission Note above.)
Program Notes
- BIOLOGY 2B03 and MOLBIOL 2C03 must be completed in Level II.
- Six units of BIOLOGY 2A03 , 2D03 , 2F03 , 3FF3 are required. However, completion of at least nine units is recommended.
- Completion of STATS 2B03 is required by the end of Level III. However, effective September 2017, completion of STATS 2B03 is required for admission to the Honours Molecular Biology and Genetics (Co-op) program and therefore, students intending to apply for the Co-op option must complete STATS 2B03 in Level II.
- Students interested in microbiology and biotechnology and especially those considering postgraduate studies in this area should take the following courses: BIOLOGY 4PP3 , MOLBIOL 3CC3 (or 4CC3 ), 4P03 .
- BIOLOGY 2L06 A/B (or 2L03 ), MOLBIOL 3A03 and 3I03 A/B S are recommended as preparatory courses for BIOLOGY 4C09 A/B S or 4F06 A/B S .
