Bachelor of Science (Honours) [-BSH]

To consist of the following Plan types plus additional elective units to total 120.0 units:

1. Major (Science): Consists of 60.0 core and option units and up to 12.0 supporting units.
2. Major (Science) – Minor (Arts, Science or Computing): Consists of the Major (Science) Plan requirements and the General (Arts, Science or Computing) Plan requirements in a second subject.
3. Specialization (Science): Consists of a maximum of 108.0 core and option units.

Bachelor of Science (BSC)

To consist of the following Plan type plus additional elective units to total 90.0 units. At least 48.0 units must be in the Sciences and/or Mathematics.

1. General (Science): Consists of 30.0 to 36.0 core and option units and up to 12.0 supporting units: 6.0 units at the 100 level, 2.0 units at the 200 level, and the remaining units at any level. These Plan requirements may alternatively be used towards the Minor (Science) requirements of a Major – Minor Plan combination.

Overlap in Plans

The following rules indicate how courses are to be counted for credit towards a Program where the course requirements of two Plans included in said Program overlap.

1. Core and Option Courses: When Plans are combined, the core and option courses used to fulfill the requirements of one Plan cannot be counted towards the core and option requirements of the second Plan.
2. Major-Minor combinations:Where there is overlap in the core, the course(s) must be counted as part of the Major Plan and alternate course(s) must be chosen for the minor Plan, in consultation with the Department administering the minor Plan. Alternates may not be allowed where the Department believes that such alternates will compromise the integrity of the degree. Where there is overlap between the core in one plan, and the options in another, or between options in the two plans, a different option must be chosen.
