HONORS SPECIALIZATION IN COMPUTATIONAL BIOCHEMISTRY*

Enrollment in this module is limited and competitive, and requires registration in the BMSc Program. Meeting the minimum requirements does not guarantee that students wishing to enter or progress in this module will be offered enrollment. See BMSc Program for more detailed information.

Admission Requirements
Students must successfully complete their first-year requirements (5.0 courses during the Fall/Winter terms) with no failures. A mark of at least 60% must be achieved in each of the 3.0 principal courses below and an average of at least 75% must be obtained on these 3.0 principal courses:

1.0 course: Biology 1001A* and Biology 1002B*, or the former Biology 1222 or 1223
1.0 course: Chemistry 1100A/B and 1200B, or the former Chemistry 1020, 1050, or 023.
1.0 course from: (Calculus 1000A/B, 1100A/B or 1500A/B), (Calculus 1301A/B or 1501A/B), Mathematics 1600A/B or the former Linear Algebra 1600A/B, Applied Mathematics 1201A/B or the former Calculus 1201A/B, Applied Mathematics 1413.

* Biology 1201A with a mark of at least 70% may be used in place of Biology 1001A, and Biology 1202B with a mark of at least 70% may be used in place of Biology 1002B.

The following courses must be completed by the end of second year, with a mark of at least 60% in each:

0.5 course from: Physics 1028A/B, 1301A/B or 1501A/B.
0.5 course from: Physics 1029A/B, 1302A/B or 1502A/B.

It is recommended that the two 0.5 Physics courses be taken in the Fall and Winter terms of the same academic year. Either the former Physics 1020 or 1024, with a minimum mark of 60%, may be used in place of the two 0.5 courses in Physics listed above.
