Bachelor of Science (BSc) in Neuroscience - Honours

Department vs. Faculty Regulations

Regulations governing Neuroscience are a combination of general Faculty of Science regulations and the additional program specific regulations listed below.

It is essential for students to be familiar with both sets of regulations. It is helpful to read the Faculty Regulations first.

Students should consult Academic Requirements in their Student Centre periodically to ensure that requirements are being met. Also, students are strongly urged to consult with the Undergraduate Science Centre (USC) and the Department at all stages of their program.

Enrolment Limitations in Courses

Refer to 3.3 Enrolment Limitations.

Students are advised to register for courses as soon as they are eligible to ensure the best selection. Furthermore, students are advised to follow the course recommendations for each year as many courses serve as prerequisites for subsequent courses.

At the time of graduation, students who have not achieved a GPA of 3.30 over the last 90 units will be awarded a BSc Neuroscience (i.e., without the Honours designation).

Students who wish to be considered for graduation based on course work completed through a professional program as outlined in section 3.4 A must complete all the requirements above with the exception of Neuroscience 500, 511, 521 and 531.

Recommended Program Sequence for the Honours Program in Neuroscience

This sequence describes both the recommended order in which courses should be taken and the recommended course(s) in instances where multiple courses may fulfill a degree requirement. All possible courses that may fulfill degree requirements are found in the Required Courses listed above.

Taking courses in the order of the Program Sequencing Guide will ensure students can complete their program in a timely fashion. The time to complete a program may be lengthened if students choose to complete their requirements in an alternate order.
