GENERAL INFORMATION

The Faculty of Science, Applied Science and Engineering (SASE) offers the following degrees: Bachelor of Health Science, Bachelor of Nursing, Bachelor of Science, Bachelor of Science in Computer Science, Bachelor of Science in Economics, and Bachelor of Science in Engineering. Within these programs are a variety of majors, honours, and specialization options that allow students to focus on a particular field. Students also have the opportunity to explore interests with a variety of minor and certificate programs. Co-operative education is available in some programs that enable students to combine academic studies with work terms.

In the Faculty of Science, Applied Science and Engineering, the minimum acceptable grade in a required course or course being used as a prerequisite is normally a grade of "C". Any student who fails to obtain a "C" or better in such a course must repeat the course (at the next regular session) until a grade of "C" or better is attained.
