    About

    Natural Sciences scholars ask questions such as: What is the future of augmented reality? Why do continents move? Can used nuclear fuel be recycled?

    The Natural Sciences degree option is an innovative, multidisciplinary program that allows you to concentrate on two of the following specialties offered by the faculty of science: Biology, Chemistry, Computer Science, Geoscience, Mathematics, and/or Physics. The depth of your first concentration will provide you with expertise in one area of science, while the breadth of your second concentration will help you solve multidisciplinary research problems. During the course of your studies, much of your learning will occur while actively working on problems in class, during tutorials, and in the laboratory.

    Program highlights

    • Lab work - Learn how to use tools and develop techniques within a supervised laboratory setting.
    • Study abroad opportunities - Cultural and academic experiences at destinations around the world.
    • Field school - Discipline-specific classes taken in real-world settings, and involving hands-on course work.
    • Arts and Science Honours Academy (ASHA) - A six-course interdisciplinary program with a second language aspect and travel components.
