Students interested in the Medical Sciences degrees may apply for the Biological and Medical Sciences program in First Year. Following successful completion of the appropriate first-year courses, students may then proceed into either a Biological or Medical Sciences module.
Four BMSc Degrees are offered:
- BMSc Specialization (Non-Honors)
- BMSc Honors Specialization
- BMSc Honors (Discipline Specific)
- Combined Honors BMSc/Honors HBA.
Medical Science Disciplines are: Anatomy and Cell Biology, Biochemistry, Epidemiology and Biostatistics, Medical Biophysics, Microbiology and Immunology, Pathology, Pharmacology and Toxicology, and Physiology.
The Honors Bachelor of Medical Sciences degree must include either:
one of the following Honors Specializations: Biochemistry, Medical Biophysics, Medical Sciences, Microbiology and Immunology, Pharmacology and Toxicology, Physiology, Physiology and Pharmacology, Toxicology and Pathology.
OR two of the following Majors: Anatomy and Cell Biology, Biochemistry, Medical Biophysics, Medical Sciences, Pharmacology and Toxicology, Physiology.
The Bachelor of Medical Sciences (Four-Year) degree must include either:
- one of the following Specializations: Biochemistry, Medical Biophysics, Medical Sciences, Microbiology and Immunology, Pharmacology and Toxicology, Physiology, Physiology and Pharmacology, Toxicology and Pathology.
OR - two of the following Majors: Anatomy and Cell Biology, Biochemistry, Medical Biophysics, Medical Sciences, Pharmacology and Toxicology, Physiology.
Note: There is no Bachelor of Medical Sciences (Three-Year). For more information on the Honors Specialization, Specialization, and Major modules, see the outlines for the departments listed above.
Academic Counselling
Room C111, Molecular Biology Laboratory Building (MBL), Tel: (519) 850-2922
