Program details
Overview
The General Science Certificate is a one-year program at Keyano College that provides a foundation in biology, chemistry, mathematics, physics, and environmental science. Delivered in person at the Clearwater Campus, the program allows students to align their coursework with Bachelor of Science admission requirements at Alberta institutions, supporting a transfer pathway into degree study. Coursework emphasizes core scientific principles and quantitative reasoning skills needed for further study in the sciences. Part-time completion is available, and students may include an optional work-integrated learning component. The certificate suits both recent high school graduates and mature students seeking to build foundational science and math skills before continuing into diploma or degree-level science programs.
