The five-year program, sponsored jointly by the Department of Biological Sciences and the Department of Computer Science, leads to both the Bachelor of Science in Computer Science and the Bachelor of Science in Biological Sciences degrees. The program requires careful selection of courses in order to complete the requirements of both the Departments.
Students wishing to embark on the sequence of courses leading to this combined degree program may enter the combined program in year one, otherwise they may enter the Faculty of Science in first year and be accepted into the Computer Science program or the Biological Sciences program.
Once admitted to the combined program, a student may elect to remain in it, or switch to either of the two separate degree programs, as long as the requirements of each program continue to be met. Failure to meet requirements will result in a student being required to withdraw from the combined or separate programs, as the case may be.
For program details, please see the Department of Biological Sciences section of this Calendar.
