| Prerequisites Notes | Applicants are required to have English (ENG4U), Advanced Functions (MHF4U), 2 courses from: Biology (SBI4U), Chemistry (SCH4U), Physics (SPH4U), and 2 additional 4U or 4M courses.
Two of three 4U high school science courses (i.e. Biology, Chemistry and Physics) are required for admission; completion of all three is highly recommended. Applicants who lack the third science course will take a replacement course in their first semester.
Students applying to the University directly from high school will be considered for admission to Co-op. Normally, a minimum average of 80% is required for consideration, but exact cut-offs are determined by the quantity and quality of the applicant pool as well as space available in each program.

| Description | The core of this major will provide students with an integrated foundation in three subjects necessary to understand the origins, interactions, and protection of biological diversity: evolution, ecology, and conservation biology. The program provides a strong foundation in science in 1st year, subject area courses in subsequent years and access to a wide variety of electives both in ecology, evolution and conservation as well as non-science. The program offers a sound scientific background in preparation for careers in resource management, conservation, ecological consulting, teaching, and government service. This major also qualifies students for post-graduate work in ecology, evolutionary biology, environmental sciences, or wildlife management. | | |
