MAJOR PROGRAM

(67 credits)

Students enter the Major program in U1, which is the first year of a three-year degree (for students from CEGEP) or the second year of a four-year degree (for students entering Â鶹AV from high school).  The Major is more specialized than the Liberal Program, and it provides more extensive core content in biology, chemistry, biochemistry, and physiology, along with more concentrated training in anatomy and cell biology.  The program includes 24 credits of Complementary Courses, which allows students to stream their courses according to particular subjects of interest among the various areas of Anatomy & Cell Biology and related biomedical sciences. 

The full program description can be found in the eCalendar:  

Bachelor of Science (B.Sc.) - Major Anatomy and Cell Biology
