Admission

Admission to this program has been suspended as of Fall 2015.

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

Courses constituting the field of Applied and Environmental Geology
Required Courses - Major Program

See also Section 3 (Faculty Regulations), Subsections 3.4A (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, 401, 403 or 503, 445, 505, 571, 597

  • 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 equivalent) option from the field of Geology.

3 units (0.5 full-course equivalent) - Option from the field of Geology (Geology 441 is recommended)

6 units (1.0 full-course equivalent) - Geophysics 351 or 355, 565

6 units (1.0 full-course equivalent) - Physics 211 or 221, 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) - Mathematics 331

3 units (0.5 full-course equivalent) - Statistics 327

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

12 units (2.0 full-course equivalents) - Science or Engineering options chosen from the following (see Notes):

1Recommended options

9 units (1.5 full-course equivalents) - Option (Science or Engineering options are recommended)

15 units (2.5 full-course equivalents) - Breadth requirement (see Notes)

Notes:

  • The Major program may contain a maximum of 66 units (11.0 full-course equivalents) from the field of Applied and Environmental Geology, and the Honours program may contain a maximum of 78 units (13.0 full-course equivalents) from the field of Applied and Environmental Geology.
  • 600-level courses are available to fourth year students with prerequisites and consent of the Department.
  • In order to meet the academic requirements for registration with APEGA, the Applied and Environmental Geology Majors program must include, in addition to the physics, chemistry and statistics courses already required in the program, 3 units (0.5 full-course equivalent) in one of biology, chemistry, computer science, statistics or physics. This choice must be made from either the 12 units (2.0 full-course equivalents) Science or Engineering Options or the 9 units (1.5 full-course equivalents) Options for the Applied and Environmental Geology Majors program.
  • Breadth requirement: Options from Faculties other than the Faculty of Science (check Table I in 3.4 Program Requirements for ineligible courses). 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. 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.

1Geology 337 is a field school that runs for about 15-18 days prior to the Fall Term or after the Winter Term.

2Geology 441 is a field school that runs for about 12-14 days after the Winter Term.

Note: 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).
