The growth of technology, globalization of economies, and rapid increases in population and per capita consumption have all had dramatic environmental impacts. The Interfaculty Program Environment for the Bachelor of Arts and Science is designed to provide students with a broad "Liberal Arts/Science" training. In combination with careful mentoring, this program offers a great degree of flexibility, allowing students to develop the skills and knowledge base required to face the myriad of environmental problems that currently need to be addressed.
Program Requirements
1. Students are required to take a maximum of 21 credits at the 200-level and a minimum of 12 credits at the 400-level or higher in this program. This includes Required courses.
2. Students must complete at least 30 credits in the Faculty of Arts and at least 30 in the Faculty of Science as part of their interfaculty program and their minor or minor concentration. ENVR courses are considered courses in both Arts and Science, and so the credits are split between the two faculties for the purpose of this regulation.
3. Students are also required to complete the required integrative course BASC 201 (3) Arts and Science Integrative Topics.
Location Note: When planning your schedule and registering for courses, you should verify where each course is offered because courses for this program are taught on both 缅北强奸's downtown campus and at the Macdonald campus in Ste. Anne de Bellevue.
Required Courses (18 credits)
Location Note: Core required courses are taught at both 缅北强奸's downtown campus and at the Macdonald campus in Ste. Anne de Bellevue. You should register in Section 001 of an ENVR course that you plan to take on the downtown campus, and in Section 051 of an ENVR course that you plan to take on the Macdonald campus.
