Program details
Overview
This Bachelor's program covers both Geology and Environmental Geoscience, offered as Bachelor of Science and Honours degrees through the Faculty of Science over four years. The geology track divides into mineral exploration and oil and gas exploration concentrations, while environmental geoscience focuses on applications in environmental studies; both examine the physical structure and processes of the earth. The curriculum includes extensive field-oriented exercises and two intensive field school courses, including a ten-day mapping and rock-study field school held during the spring or summer semester. Honours students must complete a research thesis, while non-Honours students may complete thesis work as an optional upper-level course. A Co-op option provides work terms in the public or private sector, and the program aligns with certification standards of the Association of Professional Engineers and Geoscientists of Saskatchewan. Facilities include geofluids, organic geochemistry, and quaternary geology labs, along with electron microscopy and Raman spectroscopy equipment. The program suits students interested in earth science fieldwork and resource or environmental applications. Described career paths for graduates include exploration geologist, environmental consultant, field geologist, hydrologist, and paleontologist.
Requirements
Minimum GPA:70.00 / %
Admission Requirements: The geology and environmental geoscience page only references meeting the Faculty of Science admission requirements via its transfer FAQ and links to the general application guide; the specifics below are that guide's Saskatchewan high-school pathway. Final admission needs Saskatchewan Secondary standing with English Language Arts 30, Pre-Calculus 30, and two of Biology 30, Calculus 30, Chemistry 30, Computer Science 30, Earth Science 30 or Physics 30, to a 70% average. Applicants missing one of the five subjects but averaging 70% on the remainder, or averaging 65-69.99% with all five present, are admitted as Science Qualifying students. International applicants must also meet English proficiency: IELTS Academic 6.5 overall (no band below 6.0), TOEFL iBT 83 (4.5 overall from 21 January 2026), PTE Academic 59, CAEL 60, or Duolingo 120.
Application Details
Application Deadline:Domestic applicants to the University of Regina apply for Fall 2027 entry with a recommended early deadline of 15 March 2027 for best course selection and a final new-applicant deadline of 15 August 2027; Winter 2027-28 entry has an early deadline of 1 November 2026 and a final deadline of 15 December 2026, and Spring/Summer 2027 entry closes 15 April 2027. International (study-permit) applicants share the same final deadlines as domestic students for each term but have no separate early deadline. Numerous named programs, including Nursing, Social Work, Bachelor of Indigenous Social Work, Indigenous Fine Arts and Indigenous Education, carry their own earlier deadlines instead of the general dates. Admission is not described as rolling; late non-competitive applications are simply carried to the next term the program accepts. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
