Residency Requirements for Faculty of Science Degrees
To obtain a B.Sc. degree, you must satisfy the following residency requirements: a minimum of 60 credits of courses used to satisfy the B.Sc. degree requirements must be taken and passed at 69ÈÈÊÓƵ, exclusive of any courses completed as part of the Science Freshman program; see B.Sc. Freshman Program. At least two-thirds of all departmental program requirements (Honours, Major, Core Science Components, or Minor) must normally be completed at 69ÈÈÊÓƵ not including courses completed in a prior 69ÈÈÊÓƵ degree. Exceptionally, students in major concentrations or interfaculty or honours programs who pursue an approved Study Away or Exchange program may, with prior approval from both their department and the Director of Advising Services, Faculty of Science, be exempted from the two-thirds rule. In addition, some departments may require that their students complete specific components of their program at 69ÈÈÊÓƵ.
The residency requirement for diploma programs is 30 credits completed at 69ÈÈÊÓƵ.
