Students in satisfactory standing may select the Nanoscience Concentration or Minor after they have completed at least 3.5 FCE. Note: If applications exceed the capacity of the Minor or Concentration in Nanoscience, priority will be given to students in satisfactory standing in the BSc or BSc Honours in Applied Chemistry, Biochemistry, Biological Sciences, Botany, Cellular, Molecular and Microbial Biology, Chemistry, Chemical Physics, Ecology, Geology, Geophysics, Physics or Zoology. See also 3.2 Admission.

Any course used to satisfy Major or Honours field requirements may not be applied to the Nanoscience Concentration or Minor.

The field of Nanoscience is defined as:

• Applied Mathematics 217 and 219
• Biology 231, 233, 241 and 243
• Chemistry 201, 203, 211 and 213
• Geology 201 and 202 or 203
• All courses labelled 200-level Mathematics except Mathematics 205
• All courses labelled Nanoscience
• Physics 211, 221, 223, 227 and 255

See also Section 3 (Faculty Regulations), Subsection 3.4B(Program Requirements - Major and Honours Programs) and Subsection 3.5B (Course Selection and Registration - Introductory Courses for Science Degree Programs).
