See the sections on Enrolment Limitations under the Department of Geoscience and under Section 3 (Faculty Regulations).

• All courses labelled Geology excluding Geology 209, 301, 305, 307, 309, 377, 471

EffectiveÌýFall 2014, Geology 313 replaced Geology 423, Geology 333 replaced Geology 311, Geology 343 replaced Geology 341, Geology 353 replaced Geology 373, and Geophysics 351 replaced Geophysics 355 as the core departmental courses for Majors and Honours students and serves as prerequisites for the appropriate courses.

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

45 units (7.5 full-course equivalents) – Geology 201, 202 or 203, 313 or 423, 323, 333 or 311, 337, 343 or 341, 353 or 373, 381, 445, 463 or 461, 483 or 583, 491 or 493, 577, 581 or 575 or 591

• Students who have taken Geology 341 (discontinued) do not need to take, and may not receive credit for, either Geology 343 or 445. For these students, Geology 341 replaces Geology 343 and Geology 445 must be replaced with another 3 units (0.5 full-course equivalents) option from the field of Geology.

3 units (0.5 full-course equivalent) - Option from the field of Geology

3 units (0.5 full-course equivalent) - Geophysics 351

12 units (2.0 full-course equivalents) - Geology, Geophysics or Engineering options from the following:

• Petroleum Engineering 507, 513, 515, 523, 543
  • Only one of these may be counted towards APEGA Geology requirements.
• Courses in the field of geology
  • Recommended Options: Geology 435, 537, 541, 561, 579, 587, 597,
• Courses in the field of geophysics
  • Recommended Options: Geophysics 355, 559.

6 units (1.0 full-course equivalent) - Physics 211 or 221, and 223

6 units (1.0 full-course equivalent) - Chemistry 201 or 211, and 203 or 213

3 units (0.5 full-course equivalent) - Mathematics 249 or 265 or 275

3 units (0.5 full-course equivalent) - Mathematics 253 or 267 or 277

3 units (0.5 full-course equivalent) - Mathematics 211

3 units (0.5 full-course equivalent) - Science 311

6 units (1.0 full-course equivalent) - Science options: same as for Geology Major program (also, see Notes)

12 units (2.0 full-course equivalents) - Options (Science options are recommended - see Notes)

15 units (2.5 full-course equivalents) – Breadth requirement: Non-science options (see Notes)

Notes:

• The Major program may contain a maximum of 66 units (11 full-course equivalents) in the field of Geology, and the Honours program may contain a maximum of 78 units (13 full-course equivalents) in the field of Geology.
• In order to meet the academic requirements for registration with APEGA, 6 units (1.0 full-course equivalent) from the Science Options and/or the Options must be chosen from one or more of biology, chemistry (3 units or 0.5 full-course equivalent maximum), computer science, physics (3 units or 0.5 full-course equivalent maximum), or statistics.
• These 15 units (2.5 full-course equivalents) and Science 311 form the 18 units (3.0 full-course equivalents) non-science course requirements selected from Faculties other than the Faculty of Science (see Table I, 3.4. Program Requirements for courses that may not be used to satisfy this requirement). Of these 18 units (3.0 full-course equivalents), students must take at least 6 units (1.0 full-course equivalent) from the Faculty of Arts (see (d) Breadth requirement in 3.4 Program Requirements.

Effective Fall 2014, Geology 313 replaced Geology 423, Geology 333 replaced Geology 311, Geology 343 replaced Geology 341, Geology 353 replaced Geology 373, and Geophysics 351 replaced Geophysics 355 as the core departmental courses for Majors and Honours students and serves as prerequisites for the appropriate courses.

Same as the Major degree program in Geology (Petroleum Geology Concentration) except that the following course is taken in place of the 6 units (1.0 full-course equivalent) of the 12 units (2.0 full-course equivalents) of Geology, Geophysics or Engineering options:

• 6 units (1.0 full-course equivalent) - Geology 510

(Majors and Honours)

*Geology 337 is a field school that runs for about 15-18 days prior to the Fall Term or after the Winter Term. Students taking a geology field school course in a term are permitted to register in an additional 15 units (2.5 full-course equivalents) in that term (for a total of 18 units or 3.0 full-course equivalents).

**Geology, Geophysics or Engineering Option from the specified list.
