Notes

1 A language course at the 1000 or 2000 level is strongly recommended.
* This course is beyond the requirements of the programs in science.

Students who take the Geology-Physics program and wish to become registered members of the Association of Professional Geoscientists of Ontario must take 21 credits in Geology from among the optional courses in order to satisfy the requirements of the professional association.

The required 3000-4000 level lecture courses are offered in French and English in alternate years.

For students registered in the Faculty of Science : If the components of your program of study require common compulsory courses, you will have to replace the credits as follows:
1) 1000-level courses must be replaced with electives;
2) 2000-level courses and above must be replaced with courses from either discipline at the same level or above.

Please note that all programs in the Faculty of Science require a minimum of 12 credits from the Faculties of Arts, Education, Law, Social Science or the School of Management. Once you have decided on the replacement courses, please inform the Office of Undergraduate Programs of the Faculty of Science by email at infosci@uOttawa.ca so we may amend your Rabaska audit accordingly.

Co-operative education is available with this program.
The extended French stream is available with this program.
