Program details
Overview
Yukon University's Science certificate is a one-year, 30-credit program for students beginning post-secondary science education, with courses transferable into second-year Bachelor of Science programs at partner Canadian universities. Students can build a program around biology, chemistry, geography, geology, computer science, physics, or mathematics, combining on-campus instruction in Whitehorse with some courses offered online. It also serves as a foundation for university transfer into engineering and related science programs. Admission requires English 12 plus at least two of Math 12 (Pre-Calculus), Chemistry 11 or 12, Physics 11 or 12, or Biology 11 or 12, and individual courses may carry their own additional prerequisites. Students must maintain a cumulative GPA of 2.0 across their required courses to remain in good standing. The September-start certificate suits recent high school graduates and returning students who want a flexible, transferable first year of science before committing to a specific degree program elsewhere.
