The program is divided into a Science portion, which consists of 15.0 FCE and an Education portion, which consists of 10.0 FCE. The outline of the concurrent degree is shown in the suggested course sequence below. Students will complete the first two full years (10.0 FCE) in the Faculty of Science. In year 3, students will complete the required education courses (5.0 FCE). In year 4, students will complete all remaining science requirements (5.0 FCE). In year 5, students will complete the remaining courses in the education portion of the degree. Students should consult the Faculty of Education for complete details of year 3 and 5 of their degree. In the Education portion of the program in Year 5, a project course is required amalgamating Science and Education. This course replaces the 500-level Science project course (Science 501) and an option required in the regular Natural Sciences program.
Science Portion (15.0 FCE)
In the Science portion, the following concentrations are possible: Biology, Chemistry and Physics.
The requirements are the same as for the Natural Sciences Major program as specified in the Program Structure except that the 1.0 FCE Natural Science specific course and the 4.0 FCE Non-Science options are replaced by:
1.0 FCE - English
0.5 FCE - Education 201
0.5 FCE - Science 403
3.0 FCE - Options
Education Portion (10.0 FCE)
