Of these 18 units (3.0 full-course equivalents), at least 6 units (1.0 full-course equivalent) must be from the Faculty of Arts. Science 311 may be counted among the 18 units (3.0 full-course equivalents) from other faculties. 6 units (1.0 full-course equivalent) - Science options 18 units (3.0 full-course equivalent) - Options 1The recommended sequence for Mathematics courses in Physics and Astronomy is Mathematics 275 and 277. Students who complete Mathematics 267 will have to take a Block Week class for it to be equivalent to Mathematics 277. Notes:
