This program is offered in conjunction with the Department of Physics and Astronomy.

The BSc Honours program in Chemical Physics is undergoing review. Students interested in this program should seek advice from a program advisor in the Undergraduate Science Centre. Students interested in this area should consider completing a double degree or minor.

Applications to Honours Chemical Physics are accepted:

• Directly from High School into Honours Chemical Physics (see Section 3.2 Admission).
• As space permits, the Honours Chemical Physics will accept students who have completed Chemistry 211 and 213, Applied Mathematics 217 or Mathematics 251 or 249 or 265 or 275 or Mathematics 277, Mathematics 211 or 213, Computer Science 217, Physics 221 or 227 with a grade of "C-" or better in each course and meet the Honours qualifications set out in Subsection 3.2 – Honours programs.
• Additionally, as space permits, application to Honours Chemical Physics will be accepted from students who meet the Honours qualifications as set out in 3.2 Admission – Honours Programs, and have followed a program consistent with the one set out in the Suggested Program Sequence below.

Notes:

• Any student in an Honours program is subject to the provisions for continuation in an Honours program, Subsections 3.2 and 3.4C.
• GPA requirements for Honours programs

Students in Chemical Physics must present honours-level performance at the academic review completed after each winter semester. Details on the honours review is found in section A.2 of this calendar. After consultation, students who do not qualify for continuation will be moved into either Chemistry or Physics degrees unless they indicate otherwise and meet the admission requirements for their chosen program. Students with a GPA of less than 2.000 are subject to the provisions of 3.7 Student Standing, B. Performance Review, Probationary Status and Dismissal.
