Program details

Overview

Geoscience (HBSc) at the University of Toronto is offered as a Major within the Faculty of Arts & Science at the St. George campus, with a work-integrated learning option available. The program approaches Earth Sciences by integrating principles from physics, chemistry and biology to explain a wide variety of natural phenomena, building a foundational geoscience curriculum that covers mineralogy, petrology, geological structures, field techniques and Earth evolution, with flexible elective choices. As a Major rather than a Specialist, the program offers career pathways comparable to the Specialist route while leaving room for a double major or minor in another discipline, giving students more interdisciplinary flexibility. This program suits students who want a solid grounding in Earth Sciences alongside the option to combine it with another field of study. It is delivered at the University of Toronto St. George campus.
