Completion of first year requirements with no failures. Students must have an average of at least 70% in 3.0 principal courses, including Biology 022 or 023, Chemistry 020 or 023, plus 1.0 additional course, with no mark in these principal courses below 60%.

Physics 028a/b (or 020, or 024, or the former 022 or 025)
1.0 course from: Calculus 050a/b, 051a/b, 081a/b, 091a/b, Mathematics 028a/b, 030, Linear Algebra 040a/b, Statistical Sciences 024a/b. If not completed in first year, the Mathematics requirement must be completed by the end of second year.

10.0 courses:

0.5 course: Biochemistry 280a
5.0 courses: Biology 281b, 282b, 283a, 286a, 290F/G, 396a/b, 482, 493
0.5 course: Chemistry 213a/b
0.5 course: Biology 244a/b, Statistical Sciences 222a/b. Students may substitute Statistical Sciences 135 or Psychology 281 for this 0.5 course.
0.5 course from: Biology 260a/b, 272b
1.0 course from: Biology 366b, 392a, 393b
1.0 course from: Biology 394a, 395a, 397b, the former Biology 390a, 391b
1.0 course from: Biology 440G, 460b, 461F, 462b, 450F/G, 489a/b, 499E (see notes 3 & 4), Microbiology and Immunology 467b, the former Biology 451F/G

Notes:

1) In addition to the normal progression requirements for Honors Specializations, students must obtain a minimum mark of 70% in each of Biology 281b, 290F/G and 396a/b and 1.0 of the 300 level Biology courses listed above, in order to progress within the Honors Specialization in Genetics.
2) If students take Statistical Sciences 135 or Psychology 281 instead of Biology 244a/b or Statistical Sciences 222a/b, the module becomes 10.5 courses.
3) If students take Biology 499E, the module becomes 10.5 courses.
4) If students take both Biology 499E AND Statistical Sciences 135 or Psychology 281, the module will be 11.0 courses.
