Chemistry
Considered the "Central Science", chemistry is connected to all scientific disciplines in one way or another, and has a direct impact on virtually every part of our lives.
From the development of environmentally friendly cleaning products or examining the components in pesticides on our fruits and vegetables to finding cleaner water sources, chemistry is essential.
Note: In addition to meeting the admission requirements for the Faculty of Science, applicants must have successfully completed Chemistry 30 and Physics 30 or equivalent (Mathematics 31 is strongly recommended), to register in the appropriate university courses and to ensure success in the program.
