Required Courses - Honours Program
Students are expected to enrol in honours courses upon their decision to become honours majors. In addition to the requirements specified by the Faculty of Science (see Section 3), students are required to complete the following program of study: 0.5 FCE - Mathematics 273 1.5 FCE - Mathematics 249 or 251 or 281 and 283 and 381 2.0 FCE - Mathematics 211 or 213 and 311 or 313 and 321 and Statistics 323 0.5 FCE - Computer Science 217 or 231 or 235 1.5 FCE - Statistics 421, 429 and 517 4.0 FCE - Selected from any courses labelled Statistics at the 400 level or above 0.5 FCE - Pure Mathematics 435 or 455 0.5 FCE - Pure Mathematics 445 or 545 or 421 orÌý521 4.0 FCE - Breadth requirement:ÌýOptions from faculties other than the Faculty of Science (check Table I in 3.4 Program Requirements for ineligible courses). Of these 4.0 FCE, at least 1.0 FCE must be from the Faculty of Arts. Science 311 may be counted among the 4.0 FCE from other faculties. 5.0 FCE - Options Note: The following substitutions allow students to enter the honours program later in their studies: (a) The calculus sequence Mathematics 249/251/281, 283, 381 may be replaced by an average grade of "B+" or better in either of the calculus sequences Mathematics 249 or 251, 253, 349, 353; or Applied Mathematics 217, 219, 309 with permission. (b) Mathematics 273 may be replaced by a grade of "B+" or better in Mathematics 271 with permission. (c) Mathematics 213 may be replaced by a grade of "B+" or better in Mathematics 211 or 221 with permission. |
