It is strongly recommended that PHYSICS 1B03 be completed in Level I. Students who have not completed PHYSICS 1B03 or 1L03 will be considered for admission, however, these units must be replaced with a course selected from the Life Sciences I Course List. PHYSICS 1B03 must be completed by the end of Level II. PHYSICS 1L03 serves as the prerequisite for PHYSICS 1B03 for students who have not completed Grade 12 Physics U. Completion of PHYSICS 1BB3 is also strongly recommended.
Enrolment in this program is limited and possession of the published minimum requirements does not guarantee admission. Admission is by selection but requires, as a minimum, completion of any Level I program with a Cumulative Average of at least 6.0 including:
There are Level II and III prerequisites for many Level III and IV courses. The prerequisites should be considered when choosing Level II and III courses.
A ‘research intensive’ option, available to students registered in this specialization, offers additional laboratory research experience through completion of BIOCHEM 3R06 and 4T15. This option is intended for students planning to pursue graduate studies or a career in research and development. Enrolment in the courses is limited and admission is by selection.
Both CHEM BIO 2A03 and 2P03 are highly recommended for students interested in pursuing an undergraduate thesis or graduate studies in biophysical chemistry.
