SPECIALIZATION IN INTERDISCIPLINARY MEDICAL SCIENCES (IMS)
|
Students entering third or fourth year of a BMSc degree in September 2013 will register in a Specialization in Medical Sciences.
This module leads to a Bachelor of Medical Sciences (BMSc) degree. See BACHELOR OF MEDICAL SCIENCES (BMSc) PROGRAM for more information.
Admission Requirements for September 1, 2013:
Completion of first-year requirements, including a mark of at least 60% in each of the 3.0 (full or half) principal courses below:
1.0 course: Biology 1001A* and Biology 1002B*.
1.0 course: Chemistry 1100A/B and 1200B.
1.0 course from: Calculus 1000A/B or 1500A/B, Calculus 1301A/B or 1501A/B, Mathematics 1600A/B, Mathematics 1225A/B, 1228A/B, 1229A/B, Statistical Sciences 1024A/B, Applied Mathematics 1201A/B, Applied Mathematics 1413.
* Biology 1201A with a mark of at least 70% may be used in place of Biology 1001A, and Biology 1202B with a mark of at least 70% may be used in place of Biology 1002B.
1.0 course in physics must be completed by the end of Year 2 and a minimum mark of 60% must be achieved in each of two half courses, as follows:
0.5 course from: Physics 1028A/B, 1301A/B, 1501A/B
0.5 course from: Physics 1029A/B, 1302A/B, 1502A/B.
Students will not be admitted to Year 2 of the Specialization module beginning in September, 2014.
Admission Requirements, effective September 1, 2015 (for students admitted to Year 1 in September, 2013):
Admission to this Specialization module occurs in Year 3 and requires admission to Year 3 of the Bachelor of Medical Sciences (BMSc) Program. Students will usually complete the MEDICAL SCIENCES FIRST ENTRY PROGRAM (Medical Sciences 1 and 2) prior to admission to the Specialization module.
The 1000-level half courses listed below must each be completed with a mark of at least 60%:
1.0 course: Biology 1001A* and Biology 1002B*
1.0 course: Chemistry 1301A/B and 1302A/B
0.5 course from: Calculus 1000A/B, 1500A/B
0.5 course from: Calculus 1301A/B, 1501A/B, Mathematics 1600A/B, Applied Mathematics 1201A/B.
0.5 course from: Physics 1028A/B, 1301A/B, 1501A/B
0.5 course from: Physics 1029A/B, 1302A/B, 1502A/B.
* Biology 1201A with a mark of at least 70% may be used in place of Biology 1001A, and Biology 1202B with a mark of at least 70% may be used in place of Biology 1002B.
The courses below must be completed with a minimum mark of 60% in each prior to admission to the Specialization module in Year 3. These courses will also be used towards the Module requirements. See ADMISSION TO THE BACHELOR OF MEDICAL SCIENCES (BMSc) PROGRAM and MODULES OFFERED IN THE BMSc PROGRAM for additional requirements (averages, course load, etc.).
0.5 course: Biochemistry 2280A.
1.5 courses: Biology 2290F/G, 2382B, 2581B.
0.5 course: Chemistry 2213A/B.
0.5 course from: Biology 2244A/B or Statistical Sciences 2244A/B.
