15 units (2.5 full-course equivalents) - Options (science options are recommended)

Notes:

• These 18 units (3.0 full-course equivalents) non-science courses are 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).
• The Major program may contain a maximum of 66 units (11 full-course equivalents) from the field of Geophysics, and the Honours program may contain a maximum of 78 units (13 full-course equivalents) 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.
