THREE-YEAR BSc GEOLOGY

Note

Students who were registered in either the BSc Geology (Geosciences) or the BSc Geology (Applied Geosciences) by September 1999, may chose to graduate under either the former programs or the new BSc Geology, with appropriate substitutions for courses no longer offered.

For the requirements of these former programs, see the Earth Sciences section of the 1999-2000 Academic Calendar.

Admission Requirements

Completion of a first year program including: Earth Sciences 020 or equivalent (see note) with a mark of at least 60%; Chemistry 020 or 023; Mathematics 030 or any two of the following: Calculus 050a/b, 051a/b, 081a/b, Mathematics 028a/b, Linear Algebra 040a/b, Statistical Sciences 024a/b.

Note: Courses equivalent to Earth Sciences 020 are any two of Earth Sciences 081a/b, 082a/b, 083F, 085a/b, 281b; the recommended combination most closely approximating the content of Earth Sciences 020 is Earth Sciences 082a/b and 085a/b.

Second Year

Earth Sciences 200a, 201a, 205a

Earth Sciences 206b, 220b, 230b, 250y, 260a/b

Physics 141a/b

One full-course equivalent option, to attain a total of five and one-half courses.

Note

Computer Science 026a/b is a strongly recommended option. Earth Sciences 280 is not acceptable for credit in this program.

Third Year

Earth Sciences 310a/b, 312a, 320a, 340a/b, 370a

Earth Sciences 300b, 314b, 350y, 361a/b

One senior-level full-course equivalent option to attain a total of five and one-half courses.

Notes

The Area of Concentration will consist of the 8.5 senior-level Earth Science courses which are specified in second and third year.

Students with Honors standing in second and third years of the program are eligible to enter fourth year Honors Geology. Honors standing in second and third years is attained with an average of at least 70% for all principal courses (area of concentration courses), with no mark in any of them less than 60%.
