18 units - Breadth Requirement (see Notes)

12 units - Options (science options are recommended)

Notes:

• Breadth Requirement: Options from faculties other than the Faculty of Science (check Table I in 3.4 Program Requirements for ineligible courses). Of these 18 units, at least 6 units must be from the Faculty of Arts. Science 311 may be counted among the 18 units from other faculties.
• The Major program may contain a maximum of 66 units from the Field of Geophysics, and the Honours program may contain a maximum of 78 units from the Field of Geophysics.
• 600-level courses are available to fourth year students with prerequisites and consent of the Department.
• The Majors and Honours programs in Geophysics meet the current academic requirements for professional registration with APEGA.
• Geophysics majors are allowed to replace Mathematics 331 with 367 or 377 in their programs as long as they also take either Applied Mathematics 311 or Mathematics 376 as a Science Option or Option in their programs. Such a replacement should be made by Geophysics majors wishing to do an Applied Mathematics Minor program, as Mathematics 331 is not accepted in the Applied Mathematics minor program.
