Departmental vs. Faculty Regulations

Programs in the Department of Chemistry are governed by a combination of general Faculty of Science regulations and the additional program specific regulations listed below.

It is essential for students to be familiar with both sets of regulations. It is helpful to read the Faculty Regulations in Section 3 first.

Students should consult Academic Requirements in their Student Centre periodically to ensure that requirements are being met. Also, students are strongly urged to consult with the Undergraduate Science Centre (USC) and the Department at all stages of their program.

Enrolment Limitations

Enrolment Limitations in Programs

Due to limited enrolment capacity in many senior courses in which there is a laboratory component, the Chemistry programs have a maximum capacity. For details on entry to the programs, see Section 3 (Faculty Regulations).

Enrolment Limitations in Courses

Enrolment in many courses offered by the Department of Chemistry is limited by laboratory space or other pedagogical considerations.

Consult the Schedule Builder in the Student Centre for details regarding enrolment in Chemistry courses.

International Exchange

Students in Chemistry programs have the opportunity to study abroad through participation in a Departmental international exchange scheme/arrangement. For further details please contact University of Calgary International. Students are expected to meet with an Academic Advisor at Undergraduate Science Centre (USC) to discuss courses and transferability prior to their departure (ucalgary.ca/uci/abroad/accepted-students).
