If you have transferred from another university or college, you probably have been granted transfer credit for some of your courses. Normally you receive information about your transfer credit at the time of advising so first refer back to your original advising documentation. If you have outstanding questions, please feel free to book an advising […]
Below are some common issues. Please review them first, then if you need additional help send an email to biology@yorku.ca outlining your problem and providing your name, student # and the course/lab you are trying to get into. You may be trying to enroll in a lab or tutorial section that is full or that […]
BIOL 2060 is the only statistics course that will count towards your total BIOL credits and satisfy one of the 2000-level Biology core requirements. Other courses (such as the course credit exclusions for BIOL 2060 – e.g., MATH 2560, PSYC 2021, etc.) will not be included in your total BIOL credits and cannot be used […]
Students who are missing CHEM 1000 and/or CHEM 1001 (but who have completed BIOL 1000/1001) can take the following second year BIOL courses: Course Code Course Title BIOL 2010 4.0 Plant Biology BIOL 2030 4.0 Animals BIOL 2040 3.0 Genetics BIOL 2050 4.0 Ecology (Note: BIOL 2060 is a co-requisite) BIOL 2060 3.0 Statistics for […]
No. CHEM 2020/2021 can contribute towards your total overall credits and total SC credits. Further, it is not a biology course, and does not count towards your BIOL credits. CHEM 2020/2021 may be part of the degree requirements (such as in Biomed streams) but is no longer considered equivalent to our biology core courses.
CHEM 2050 4.00 is an introductory biochemistry course designed for Chemistry students who did not take BIOL 1000 3.00 and BIOL 1001 3.00. CHEM 2050 4.00 is a course credit exclusion for BIOL/BCHM 2020 3.00, which means that students cannot take both courses for credit. Only BIOL/BCHM 2020 3.00 will count towards the Biology/Biochemistry 2000-level […]
NATS courses are designed for non-science students. They do not count towards the BSc General Education requirement nor towards the BSc science breadth requirement. However, some NATS courses may be used as science electives, but not all. For example, Biology majors cannot take Biology-related Natural Sciences (NATS) courses for credit. In addition, some NATS courses […]
First try to enrol directly. If you are blocked from enrolling, email biology@yorku.ca and provide your name, student number, and the preferred section with catalogue number. Enrolment in these courses may be prioritized to students who require it for their program. Prerequisites are enforced.
Email biology@yorku.ca providing your name and student number, the courses you want to enrol in (include the catalogue numbers and the list of labs that fit your schedule for lab courses) and the prerequisites you have as transfer credit. Ideally, send this email ~ 1 week before your enrolment window. We will check the prerequisites, […]
If you are in an Honours program in Biology (with or without a stream) and require or wish to do an honours thesis, you must take BIOL 4000. If you are a Biochemistry major you must take BCHM 4000 and if you are an Environmental Biology major you must take ENVB 4000. It is possible […]
