Entry at Level III last available in September 2022.
Effective September 2022, all Honours Biochemistry programs will be administered by the Faculty of Health Sciences. Level II students interested in applying to this program should see the Honours Biochemistry (B.H.Sc.) program in the Faculty of Health Sciences section of this Calendar.
Students who enrolled prior to September 2022 are given the choice to remain in Honours Biochemistry - Biomedical Research Specialization Co-op (B.Sc.) or transfer into Honours Biochemistry - Biomedical Research Specialization Co-op (B.H.Sc.). Students who choose to remain in Honours Biochemistry - Biomedical Research Specialization Co-op (B.Sc.) will graduate at a Faculty of Science convocation and students who transfer to Honours Biochemistry - Biomedical Research Specialization Co-op (B.H.Sc.) will graduate at a Faculty of Health Sciences convocation.
