If you are passionate about science, but want to keep your interests broad, Honours Science is for you!

Offering you the greatest flexibility within the Faculty of Science, this program allows you to explore your interests without choosing a major.

Nearly half of your courses are electives. You can choose additional science courses or choose from other departments across the university, providing you with an educational experience that matches your interests and goals.

If you decide to choose a major (such as Biology or Chemistry), you can do so at any time up to third year.

Honours Science provides an excellent foundation for your career or for further education, such as medical school or a master's degree.
