Contemporary Science Professional and Professionally-Related Table I

Professional and Professionally-Related Table I

Last offered 2018-2019.

A total of 18 technical courses is required from this Table for graduation.

Students must:

  1. select three streams and
  2. complete a minimum of six courses from each of the three streams selected. 

Students must select at least one of the following as one of their three streams:

  • Informatics
  • Computational Sciences
  • Physics


Students can only select one of either Biology or Environmental Sciences as their stream.

A course that is listed in multiple streams may only count as one credit toward one stream. In some cases, an alternative course may be used to satisfy the requirements of a particular stream. Students should meet with the Program Director regarding suitable course substitutions.
