B.Sc. Programs
Expandable List
The B.Sc. in Chemical and Physical Science has been designed for those students interested in a 3 year programme in either Chemistry or Physics. It is modelled on the Complementary Studies Options and the student is free to chose a combination of Chemistry and Physics courses. Timetable constraints will tend to force the selection to be heavily weighted in just one of these departments.
In addition to core physics, students study the physics of planets, stars, galaxies, and cosmology. Students learn about observations and image analysis.
Medical and Biological Physics is the study of biologically relevant problems using the techniques of physics. Students learn about membranes and soft materials, molecular biophysics, and computation and laboratory methods.
Co-op program: A five year program that includes two 8-month work terms starts in Year 3 with applications due in Year 2. Students spend work terms at industrial facilities, research institutions, experimental facilities, space agencies and in a wide variety of areas with 100% placement so far.
A balance of theoretical and experimental (lab) courses that are a solid basis for any specialization. Early introduction to scientific computing. Sufficient electives to take a minor in anything (e.g. music, French, economics…)

Students in the Arts & Science program may choose to complete a Combined Honours degree in Arts & Science & Physics
Beginning at Level II, Honours Integrated Science students may complete a concentration in Physics
C. Honours Integrated Science - Medical and Biological Physics Concentration, B.Sc. (4 year program)
Beginning at Level II, Honours Integrated Science students may complete a concentration in Medical and Biological Physics
A larger focus on theoretical and math based courses with less emphasis on experimental techniques. Lots of math, lots of physics!
