SPECIALIZATION IN PHARMACOLOGY
This module leads to a Bachelor of Medical Sciences (BMSc) degree. See BACHELOR OF MEDICAL SCIENCES (BMSc) PROGRAM for more information.

Students entering Years 3 and 4 in September 2014 should see the Admission Requirements in the 2012/13 Academic Calendar, and the Module requirements below.

Admission Requirements (for students admitted to Year 1 in September, 2013 and onward):

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 MEDICAL SCIENCES FIRST ENTRY (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, or the former 1100A/B
0.5 course from: Applied Mathematics 1201A/B, Calculus 1301A/B or 1501A/B, Mathematics 1600A/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.
