Admission

See the sections on Enrolment Limitations under the Department of Geoscience and under Section 3 (Faculty Regulations).

Courses constituting the field of Geology

All courses labeled Geology excluding Geology 209, 301, 305, 307, 309, 377, and 471.

Required Courses - Major Program

See also Section 3 (Faculty Regulations), Subsections 3.4B (Program Requirements - Major Degree Programs) and 3.5B (Introductory Courses for Science Degree Programs).

6.5 FCE - Geology 201, 202 or 203, 311, 323, 337, 341, 381, 491, 423, 435, 443, 461, 555

2.5 FCE - Options from the field of Geology (see Notes)

0.5 FCE - Geophysics 355

1.0 FCE - Geology, Geophysics or Engineering options from the following (see Notes):

1.0 FCE - Physics 211 or 221, and 223

1.0 FCE - Chemistry 201 or 211, and 203 or 213

0.5 FCE - Mathematics 251 or 249 or 281 or Applied Mathematics 217

0.5 FCE - Mathematics 253 or 283 or Applied Mathematics 219

0.5 FCE - Mathematics 211

0.5 FCE - Science 311

1.0 FCE - Science options from the following (see Notes):

3.5 FCE - Breadth requirement: Non-science options (see Notes)

1.0 FCE - Options (Science options are recommended -- see Notes)

Note: The Major program may contain a maximum of 10 FCE from the field of Geology, and the Honours program may contain a maximum of 12 FCE from the field of Geology.

Note: The Major and Honours programs must contain at least 2 FCE at the 500 level or above from the field of Geology.

Note: 600-level courses are available to fourth year students with prerequisites and consent of the Department.

Note: In order to meet the academic requirements for registration with APEGA, the 1.0 FCE of Science options must be chosen from biology, chemistry (0.5 FCE maximum), computer science, physics (0.5 FCE maximum), or statistics.

Note: These 3.5 FCE and Science 311 form the 4.0 FCE non-science course requirements selected from Faculties other than the Faculty of Science (see Table I, 3.4. Program Requirements for courses that may not be used to satisfy this requirement). Of these 4.0 FCE, students must take at least 1.0 FCE from the Faculty of Arts (see (d) Breadth requirement in 3.4 Program Requirements.

Required Courses - Honours Program

Same as the Major degree program in Geology except that the Honours program must include:
