Biology for Health Sciences - Major (Science)

This program focuses on areas of biological science that relate to the health of humans and will provide a strong foundation for students interested in pursuing a career in the health sciences.

Enrolment in this program is limited to students who have completed 4.0 credits (including BIO152H5 and BIO153H5) and who have achieved a CGPA of at least 2.5. All students (including transfer students) must complete 4.0 UTM credits before requesting this program.

Note: CGPA for enrolment in this program is calculated based on a minimum of 4.0 credits completed at UTM with final percentage grades (i.e. CR/ NCR courses are not applicable).

8.5 credits are required including at least 2.0 at the 300/400 level.

NOTES

  • Completion of this program with another Biology Major or Biology Minor will not satisfy the 12.0 distinct credit requirement for degree completion. Students should be aware of the distinct credit requirement for their degree (see section 8.6 - HBSc Degree Requirements for full details). Please choose programs accordingly.

Could we please have this in bold in calendar: Completion of this program with another Biology Major or Biology Minor will not satisfy the 12.0 distinct credit requirement for degree completion.
