Undergraduate Studies
Our department offers Bachelor of Science (BSc) and Honours Bachelor of Science (BSc Hons) degrees in Biochemistry and Chemistry. We also offer a BSc degree in Chemical Technology in collaboration with SIAST (Kelsey Campus). Students can also pursue a minor in Biochemistry or Chemistry. Students in our department have numerous opportunities to do research in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. Students can also obtain work experience while completing their degree programs through our co-operative education program.
Find additional information on undergraduate programs and chemistry or biochemistry courses available in the official academic calendar. In cases of discrepancy between information posted here and the academic calendar, the information in the academic calendar will be considered definitive.
