Major in Environmental Chemistry

First and second year requirements apply to students entering first year Science in 1997/98 (and subsequently). The following requirements for Environmental Chemistry Majors apply to those students entering first year Science in 1997/98 (and subsequently). Requirements for students who entered first year prior to 1997/98 are noted. From Fall 2004 on, Biology 213 is required.

Electives10

12 credits

1 CHEM 111/121 or 111/125 recommended first year Chemistry courses for Chemistry Majors. Students who plan on transferring to UBC after their first year should take a combination that includes CHEM 125.

2 Must be taken prior to third year. Students who entered first year science prior to Fall 1997 are not required to take COMP 100 or COMP 113 and ENGL 229/230. (Although they may choose to do so as electives).

3 Students with a grade of B or better in ENGL 110 (or 111) may proceed to either of the required ENGL 229 or 230 in their second year; students with less than a B grade in their first year English course are required to take another 3 credits of first year English (111 or 121) before their second year English requirement.

4 Credit will be given for only one Introductory Statistics course (see note under Statistics Course Descriptions) and BIOL 300 requires MATH 114/124 or MATH 115/125 and Third Year standing.

5 Electives must include 9-12 credits in at least two disciplines outside of science (other than English).

6 These courses must be taken in the Fall Semester of Third Year.

7 Offered in "odd" years.

8 Offered in "even" years.

9 Environmental Chemistry students will find BIOL 302 of more value than BIOL 303. Environmental Chemistry majors planning to take BIOL 302 or 303 must have completed either two of BIOL 211, 215, 221, 225 or one of BIOL 211, 215, 221, 225 and one of CHEM 301 or 302.

10 A total of 48 credits must be at the 300-400 level; the Major in Environmental Chemistry requires 39 Chemistry credits at this level; these electives should be chosen with this requirement in mind and may be in any area; note the footnote 5 requirements.
