Why study a Bachelor of Science with Honors?
The Bachelor of Science with Honors is a degree program designed for students to reach in-depth training in a specific subject area and students who are drawn to scientific research. A research thesis project is embedded in each program and students must maintain higher academic standards than those in a BSc Major degree. Students have the option to add a minor* from the Faculty of Arts, Native Studies, Business or Agricultural, Life & Environmental Sciences, however doing so will reduce the amount of option courses. A double major is not available in the Honors program.
*NOTE: Some program combinations are not possible.
