Entry into the 4-year honors degree program occurs at the beginning of the third year and requires that the student has completed year 2 of the Biochemistry and Chemistry program, including Chemistry 251, 253 and 254; Biochemistry 280a (formerly Biology 280a) and Biology 281b. A 70% average in these courses, with no mark below 60% is required; students failing to meet these criteria will only be admitted to Year 3 of the Honors program by special permission of both the Department of Biochemistry and the Department of Chemistry.
