General requirements

  • To be considered, applicants must meet the requirements of a four-year honours science degree with a minimum 75% average during the final two years, or four semesters, of undergraduate study (learn how to calculate your admission average). Applicants should have completed a course in statistics.
  • Applicants for both the thesis or coursework and individual-based major research project must obtain the support of a faculty member willing to serve as their advisor prior to submitting an application.
