Joint Honours Degrees in Chemistry

The following information about programs of study in Chemistry has been taken from the University Calendar. While every attempt has been made to ensure that it is accurate, you should refer to the current edition of the University Calendar for the most reliable and complete information about program requirements and course list.

The following joint honours degrees are available in the department:

  • Joint Honours in Chemistry and Earth Sciences*

  • Joint Honours in Chemistry and Applied Mathematics*

  • Joint Honours in Chemistry and Biochemistry*

  • Joint Honours in Chemistry and Physics*

*The degrees listed in bold above are accredited by the Canadian Society for Chemistry.*

Joint degree programs generally require 45 Chemistry credits (and up to 135 credit hours overall) and normally take five years to complete.

Students who intend to follow a joint degree program are strongly recommended to consult the Academic Program Officer (chemapo@mun.ca) at their earliest opportunity to ensure proper planning of their course sequence. This needs to be done carefully and well in advance!
