This cohort program, offered at the Surrey campus, provides a solid foundation for those interested in a science major program offered by any faculty. The program provides a viable avenue to complete the prerequisites for various professional programs such as medicine, optometry, dentistry, pharmacy, veterinary medicine, naturopathic medicine, chiropractic, and dental hygiene. The admission requirements are the same as those of the Faculty of Science. However, students who were admitted to other 91ÅÝܽ faculties may also enrol, should space allow, but may be required to complete additional courses to augment a deficiency.
This is a full-time two term program beginning in fall.
The program is organized by Faculty of Science disciplines. A list of courses, offered by the program, is published in the fall for future fall and spring terms. For planning, see
Students are free to complete other Simon Fraser University courses (offered at any campus or by distance education) provided that those courses do not conflict with the Science Year One Program.
Students complete both full time Science Year One Program terms before they are eligible to transfer to any other 91ÅÝܽ program.
The program advisor may approve a modification of the program requirements when appropriate. For example, a student who enters with advance credit for MATH 151 may substitute an elective course offered at 91ÅÝܽ Surrey. Consult the program advisor for advice.
Students without a declared major are encouraged to discuss their academic goals with the program advisor during their first term.
Students will complete biological sciences and chemistry laboratory sessions at the Burnaby campus.
Life Sciences Year Two Program
This program, offered at 91ÅÝܽ Surrey, consists of 200 division science courses in biological sciences (BISC), chemistry (CHEM), molecular biology and biochemistry (MBB) and statistics (STAT). The courses, completed over two consecutive terms (fall and spring), are useful for students intending to major in either biological sciences or molecular biology and biochemistry. The program will also aid those students who wish to apply to professional schools in dentistry, medicine, pharmacy, optometry, veterinary science, and other life sciences areas.
Students who have completed appropriate courses in the Science Year One Program (see “Surrey Science Cohort Programs” on page 208) are guaranteed admission to the Life Sciences Year Two Program. Other students who have completed appropriate prerequisites by the fall of program admission will be admitted to the Life Sciences Year Two Program depending on available space.
A list of courses, offered by this program, is published in the fall for future fall and spring terms. For planning purposes, this can be viewed at
Students are required to enrol in at least two of the courses offered in this program each term.
Students are free to complete other Simon Fraser University courses (offered at any campus or by distance education) provided that those courses do not conflict with the program.
Note that the lab courses CHEM 126 and 286, and the laboratory component of CHEM 281 use the laboratory facilities at the Burnaby campus because suitable facilities are not yet available at 91ÅÝܽ Surrey.
After completion of this program, students will continue their studies as students in the faculty to which they were originally admitted.
Students without a declared major are encouraged to discuss their long term academic goals with the program advisor during their first term.
