BA/BS in Immunology - Major

Immunology is offered as a limited-enrolment major through the University of Toronto's Faculty of Arts & Science, administered within Trinity College, leading to a Bachelor of Science credential. The program requires coursework across four years, including at least one credit at the fourth-year level, beginning with foundational biology and chemistry, moving into biochemistry, biology, immunology, and statistics in the second year, advanced immunology and cellular biology in the third year, and specialized immunology seminars and research-oriented courses in the fourth year. Subject coverage includes immunology fundamentals, biochemistry, cellular biology, molecular genetics, and microbiology, with an emphasis on research-based learning in the later years. Admission requires prior completion of a set number of credits with minimum grades in prerequisite biology and chemistry courses and a minimum average across required courses, though thresholds can vary from year to year. It suits students pursuing an immunology-focused science degree with a view toward graduate research, and those considering graduate school are encouraged to add an optional research course when space permits.
