Program details
Overview
This Bachelor of Science in Chemical and Physical Sciences, offered at the University of Alberta's Augustana Campus in Camrose, examines matter, energy and their transformations by combining chemistry and physics study, developing both theoretical understanding and practical laboratory skills. Students choose one of two specialization options, Chemistry or Physics, and may add optional minors in Management or Music to broaden the degree beyond the core sciences. The program is delivered on campus at the smaller Augustana site, with access to modern laboratory facilities and a high-powered observatory located in a dark-sky preserve that supports astronomy-related coursework and observation. It suits students who want to understand the physical workings of the universe and build practical, lab-based scientific skills, whether heading directly into the workforce after graduation or continuing on into graduate or other professional programs in the sciences.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: Direct entry from high school (Augustana Campus, Camrose). The program lists a "Low 70s" program admission-average range. Required Grade 12 courses: English Language Arts 30-1; Mathematics 30-1; Chemistry 30; one of Science 30, Biology 30, or Physics 30; and one further course from Fine Arts, Humanities, Languages other than English, Options, Physical Education, or Math/Sciences. Fall 2027 application deadline (domestic and international): March 1, 2027.
Application Details
Application Deadline:Domestic applicants apply directly to the University of Alberta, not through a provincial service: for Fall 2027 entry the application window opens 1 October 2026 and the deadline for most programmes is 1 March 2027, though several limited-enrolment programmes close earlier (Juris Doctor, 1 December 2026; Dental Hygiene, 1 November 2026) or later (Bachelor of Design and BFA programmes, 1 May 2027); Spring and Summer 2027 admission also opens 1 October 2026, while Winter intake is limited to a few programmes. International applicants use the identical published dates and online application; the university states no separate international closing date. The 1 March deadline is firm and late applications are not accepted, but admission decisions are then issued on a rolling basis, and offers made before 1 April must be accepted by 1 May 2027. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
