The Environmental Science program brings together the study of biology, chemistry, earth sciences and geography, enabling graduates to address complex, multidisciplinary environmental and conservation problems. Students choose from four concentrations: Chemistry; Ecology, Biodiversity and Conservation; Earth Sciences; and Geomatics. The curriculum combines field courses, laboratory work and thesis research projects with classroom instruction, and a co-op option is available for students who want work experience alongside their studies. The Honours program is accredited by ECO Canada, which supports graduates' eligibility for the Environmental Professional (EP) designation, and graduates of the Earth Sciences concentration may apply for registration with Professional Geoscientists Ontario. The program is offered as a Bachelor's degree at Carleton University, drawing on faculty expertise across the sciences to prepare graduates for environmental careers and further study.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: Admission to these Bachelor of Science (Honours) programs requires the Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD) or equivalent, with six Grade 12 U or M courses that include Advanced Functions and two of Biology, Chemistry, Earth and Space Sciences, or Physics, as for other Honours Science programs. For Earth Sciences, Environmental Science, Geomatics, Integrated Science, and Physical Geography specifically, Calculus and Vectors may be substituted for Advanced Functions. For Environmental Science, a 4U course in both Biology and Chemistry is additionally recommended. Advanced standing beyond first year is assessed on merit and requires the applicant to normally be Eligible to Continue in their year level and meet the university's CGPA thresholds. The overall admission average is set each year on a program-by-program basis; holding the stated minimum only establishes eligibility for consideration, and because enrolment is limited, actual cut-off averages are typically higher.
