Courses constituting the field of Botany

*Applicability to the field depends upon the actual course content. Approval will have to be granted on an individual basis. Check the list published by the Department each February.

**No more than one FCE of such courses (approved by the Department prior to registering in the course) can be counted towards the Major Field.

Required Courses - Major Program

Recommendations

Students are advised to emphasize either a Plant Diversity, Form and Function route or a Plant Cell Biology and Biochemistry route to be better equipped for further study and employment in those areas. This listing provides recommended options for students wishing to create a program of courses that explores their particular areas of interest and supports their career goals. It is not expected that students will be able to include all of the suggestions in one area in their programs; neither is the list exhaustive nor exclusive. Some courses may have prerequisites that are not included in the listing.

Plant Diversity, Form and Function:

Biology 401, 435, 451; Botany 541; Ecology 413, 419

Plant Cell Biology and Biochemistry:

Biochemistry 561; Biology 505; Cellular, Molecular and Microbial Biology 411, 451, 511, 519, 523

Courses in Marine Science may be taken for credit during the summer and/or students may elect to spend the fall of either the third or fourth year attending the Bamfield Fall Program. Refer to the Marine Science course listings for details.
