The University of Western Ontario : MAJOR IN MEDICAL BIOPHYSICS

A degree containing this module normally requires 4 years for completion.

Admission Requirements

Completion of first-year requirements, including the following courses with a minimum mark of 60% in each:

1.0 course from: Physics 1020, 1024, 1028A/B and 1029A/B
0.5 course from: Calculus 1000A/B, 1100A/B
0.5 course from: Calculus 1301A/B, 1501A/B
1.0 course: Chemistry 1050, or the former Chemistry 1020 or 023
1.0 course from: Biology 1222, 1223
If not taken in Year 1, Biology 1222 or 1223 must be completed by the end of Year 2 with a mark of at least 60%.

Note: Students who complete either Physics 1020 or 1024 will take Physics 2101A/B and Physics 2102A/B in the module. These students should not select Medical Biophysics 2128A/B and 2129A/B in the module since credit for Physics 1020 or 1024 would be lost as they are antirequisite courses.

Note: Students who complete Physics 1028A/B and 1029A/B may choose any combination of Medical Biophysics 2128A/B and 2129A/B, Physics 2128A/B and 2129A/B, or Physics 2101A/B and 2102A/B in the module (an average of at least 80% must be achieved in Physics 1028A/B and 1029A/B, however, to choose Physics 2101A/B and 2102A/B).

Module

6.0 courses:

0.5 course from: Calculus 2302A/B, 2502A/B.
0.5 course from: Calculus 2303A/B, 2503A/B.
1.0 course from: Medical Biophysics 2128A/B and 2129A/B, or Physics 2128A/B and 2129A/B, or Physics 2101A/B and 2102A/B.
1.5 courses: Medical Biophysics 3501F, 3503G, 3970Z*.
1.0 course: Medical Biophysics 3505F and 3507G, or the former Medical Biophysics 3303E.
0.5 course: Medical Biophysics 3330F/G.
1.0 course from: Medical Biophysics 4445A/B, 4455A/B, 4467A/B, 4475A/B, 4535A/B.

* Students having completed the former Medical Biophysics 3302E will use this course and 0.5 course from the following list, in lieu of Medical Biophysics 3501F, 3503G and 3970Z: Biology 2244A/B, Chemistry 2214A/B, Medical Biophysics 3336F/G, Statistical Sciences 2122A/B, Engineering Science 1036A/B or the former Computer Science 036a/b.
