Environmental Chemistry Specialist

The Environmental Chemistry Program includes the study of chemical pollutants and natural processes that govern their fate and effects in the environment. The program involves a solid foundation in chemistry with specialized courses in environmental and analytical chemistry; breadth environmental science courses are offered through the Centre for Environment. Sufficient flexibility is available to allow students to focus on an area of specific interest. This program may lead to employment either in the public or private sector or further graduate work in applied chemistry.

First Year: BIO 150Y/(120H, 130H/220H); (CHM 151Y strongly recommended)/(138H, 139H); MAT (135H, 136H)/135Y/137Y

First or Second Year: PHY (131H, 132H)/(151H, 152H)/138Y/140Y

Second Year: CHM 217H, 225Y/(220H, 221H), 238Y, (CHM 249H strongly recommended)/247H; (CHM 210H, ENV 235H)/ENV 235Y; STA220H/GGR272H

1. CHM 310H, 410H, 415H; ENV 234Y, (ENV 221H, ENV 222H/GGR 222H)/ENV 222Y/GGR 222Y, ENV 334H/ENV 341H
   
2. One additional full course equivalent from 300/400-series CHM courses
