The program in first year must include Biology 022 or 023, and Chemistry 020 or 023, each with a mark of at least 60%, and Mathematics 030 or any two of the following: Calculus 050a/b, 051a/b, 081a/b, Mathematics 028a/b, Linear Algebra 040a/b, Statistical Sciences 024a/b; or the former Applied Mathematics 020, or 023a/b and 024a/b, or the former Mathematics 027. It is to the student's advantage to include Geography 020E and/or Earth Sciences 020 in the first year. (Of the Earth Sciences courses, Earth Sciences 020 is strongly recommended, although equivalent Earth Sciences courses, listed in Group C, may be substituted.)

Students may enter the third year of the program from second year of another program if they have already fulfilled, with a 60% average, all but five courses of the graduation requirements, and possess the proper prerequisites for the remaining courses in the Environmental Science program.

For certain courses listed below, students are advised that the necessary prerequisites are not contained in the Groups and are not part of the program requirements; thus, programs should be planned carefully.

Group D

Biology 244a, 352b; Statistical Sciences 135, 137a, 222a/b, 241a/b, 301a/b, 302a/b; Zoology 444a; Psychology 281; the former Statistical Sciences 232a, 242b, 255, 303a/b, 304b, 305a/b

Group E

Geography 020E, 123a/b, 124a/b, 153a/b, 154F/G, 166a/b, 178a/b, 208a/b, 213a/b, 214a/b, 216a/b, 235F/G, 307a/b, 308a/b, 313a/b, 314a/b, 315a/b, 316a/b, 317a/b, 318a/b, 319a/b, 321a/b, 326a/b, 355F/G, 384a/b, 385a/b, 387a/b, the former Geography 243a/b, 309a/b, 325a/b, 386a/b; Physics 103; Engineering Science 363a/b, 405a/b.

Group F

Physics 101 and either Political Science 137 or 235E are recommended. Other courses are Biology 126, 390a and 391b; Computer Science 025a, 026a/b, 027a/b, the former Computer Science 226a/b; Law 340; Philosophy 021; Physiology 130; Zoology 453b; any course in Economics or Writing

Note: 400-level courses are normally only available for students in the final year of a 4-year program.

Second and Third Years

A total of ten courses must be taken, such that by the end of the third year all graduation requirements have been met. Students are encouraged to take additional courses from the various Groups beyond the minimum requirements.

Graduation Requirements

• Environmental Science 300F/G, 350a/b
• At least one half-course from Group A
• At least one full-course equivalent from Group B
• At least one full-course equivalent from each of Groups C and E; at least one of these must be a senior course
• At least one half-course from Group D
• At least one and one-half additional senior courses from Groups A to E
• At least one additional half-course from Groups A to F
• In addition to Environmental Science 300F/G and 350a/b, at least three of the above senior courses must be selected from those offered by the Faculty of Science, and all four will constitute the Area of Concentration.
