HONOURS SPECIALIZATION IN CHEMISTRY
Faculty of Science - Chemistry
This honours module builds on the Major module in Chemistry, and allows a student to specialize in a particular area of chemistry. This module includes Chemistry 4491E, an independent research project in which the student works in one of the research laboratories in the Department of Chemistry, typically during the final year of study.
Admission Requirements
Completion of first year requirements with no failures. Students must have an average of at least 70% in 3.0 principal courses, with no mark less than 60% in any course including:
1.0 course: Chemistry 1301A/B, Chemistry 1302A/B.
1.0 course from: (Physics 1201A/B or Physics 1401A/B or Physics 1501A/B or the former Physics 1028A/B or the former Physics 1301A/B) and (Physics 1202A/B or Physics 1402A/B or Physics 1502A/B or the former Physics 1029A/B or the former Physics 1302A/B).
1.0 course from: (Calculus 1000A/B or Calculus 1500A/B or Numerical and Mathematical Methods 1412A/B or the former Applied Mathematics 1412A/B) and (Applied Mathematics 1201A/B or Calculus 1301A/B or Calculus 1501A/B or Mathematics 1600A/B or Mathematics 1700A/B or Mathematics 1229A/B or Numerical and Mathematical Methods 1411A/B or Numerical and Mathematical Methods 1414A/B or the former Applied Mathematics 1411A/B or the former Applied Mathematics 1414A/B), or the former Applied Mathematics 1413.
Note: Physics 1101A/B with a minimum mark of 80% can be used to replace Physics 1201A/B.
