    BSc General Program

    Please note that the Faculty of Science is revising the Bachelor of Science in the General Program degree requirements for all students admitted in Fall 2014 and thereafter. Please see www.uofa.ualberta.ca/science/programs/undergraduate for a detailed listing of the approved program requirements. The BSc General program provides students with a diverse education in more than one branch of study. Students must major in a Science subject area of concentration (as defined either by a single course designator or by groupings of course designators – see below). Students may elect to minor in a Science subject area of concentration, in an Arts subject area of concentration (see BA Honors and BA Major/Minor Requirements), in one of a select number of Agricultural, Life and Environmental Sciences subject areas of concentration (see BSc BSc General—Minor in Agricultural, Life and Environmental Sciences), or in Business (see BSc General—Minor in Business). In addition to providing a path to the BSc General Degree, this program of study allows for subsequent transfer to Specialization and Honors programs. Students intending to transfer to Honors or Specialization programs should consult the appropriate admission requirements for the program of interest (see Faculty of Science), select carefully their first-year core courses in accordance with the requirements of the specific Honors or Specialization program, and pay close attention to course load and GPA requirements for transfer. Students in the combined BSc/BEd program should consult Education Chart 2 (see Secondary Education Route) when choosing courses for their major and minor. Admission

    Students in the General program should normally take ★30 during the Fall/Winter of each year of the program if they wish to complete the program in four years. Although not held to a minimum Fall/Winter course load requirement while registered in the General program, students intending to transfer to an Honors or Specialization program should pay close attention to course load and GPA requirements for transfer to their program of interest. Academic Standing and Graduation

    The following regulations govern General Programs:

    To obtain a BSc General degree, a minimum 2.0 GPA must be attained on the last ★60 credited to the degree. Moreover, a minimum 2.3 GPA must be attained in all courses in the major. Students must be in Satisfactory Standing in the General program in order to graduate (a minimum 2.0 GPA in the final Fall/Winter).

    BSc General degrees with Distinction are awarded when students achieve a GPA of 3.5 or higher over the last ★60 if the students have satisfactorily completed at least a normal academic load of a minimum of ★24 during the Fall/Winter periods of the last two years at the University of Alberta.

    A student transferring to the Faculty of Science with advanced standing must complete at least ★60 applicable to the BSc program while registered at the University of Alberta. Normally, at least ★30 of the last ★60 must be completed while registered in the Faculty of Science. Time Limits for Program Completion

    The Faculty of Science may permit a student to complete the requirements for a General degree over a period longer than four years or meet the requirements in a shorter time by attending Spring/Summer. Students wishing to extend their programs beyond four years must first obtain approval of the Senior Associate Dean of Science or designate. - See more at: http://calendar.ualberta.ca/preview_program.php?catoid=6&poid=2698#sthash.8cbj9q8s.dpuf

    Biological Sciences. For example, students may not select a major in the Biological Sciences and a minor in Microbiology. For additional Biological Science courses and information see Specialization in Biological Sciences [Science].

    BIOIN courses are offered jointly by the departments of Biological Sciences and Computing Science and may be counted as Biological Sciences or Computing Science.

    PALEO courses are offered jointly by the departments of Biological Sciences and Earth and Atmospheric Sciences and may be counted as Biological Sciences or Earth and Atmospheric Sciences.

    BIOCH courses may be counted as Biological Sciences or Physical Sciences or Chemistry.

    MA PH courses may be counted as Physical Sciences or Physics.

    EAS 323 may be used as a Physical Science or Chemistry course.

    Courses in the major and minor may not overlap. For example, the Physical Sciences major or minor may not be paired with a Chemistry or Physics major or minor.

    Science options may only be taken from the course subjects listed in details of courses , including SCI and Faculty of Science INT D courses, provided students meet the prerequisite and eligibility requirements, if any. Course Load Requirements

    Students in the General program should normally take ★30 during the Fall/Winter of each year of the program if they wish to complete the program in four years. Although not held to a minimum Fall/Winter course load requirement while registered in the General program, students intending to transfer to an Honors or Specialization program should pay close attention to course load and GPA requirements for transfer to their program of interest. Academic Standing and Graduation

    The following regulations govern General Programs:

    To obtain a BSc General degree, a minimum 2.0 GPA must be attained on the last ★60 credited to the degree. Moreover, a minimum 2.3 GPA must be attained in all courses in the

    Sciences. For example, students may not select a major in the Biological Sciences and a minor in Microbiology. For additional Biological Science courses and information see Specialization in Biological Sciences [Science].

    major. Students must be in Satisfactory Standing in the General program in order to graduate (a minimum 2.0 GPA in the final Fall/Winter).

    BSc General degrees with Distinction are awarded when students achieve a GPA of 3.5 or higher over the last ★60 if the students have satisfactorily completed at least a normal academic load of a minimum of ★24 during the Fall/Winter periods of the last two years at the University of Alberta. Residence Requirement

    A student transferring to the Faculty of Science with advanced standing must complete at least ★60 applicable to the BSc program while registered at the University of Alberta. Normally, at least ★30 of the last ★60 must be completed while registered in the Faculty of Science. Time Limits for Program Completion

    The Faculty of Science may permit a student to complete the requirements for a General degree over a period longer than four years or meet the requirements in a shorter time by attending Spring/Summer. Students wishing to extend their programs beyond four years must first obtain approval of the Senior Associate Dean of Science or designate. - See more at: http://calendar.ualberta.ca/preview_program.php?catoid=6&poid=2698#sthash.8cbj9q8s.dpuf Mathematics
