Honours Medical and Biological Physics Co-op is a five-level co-op version of the Honours Medical and Biological Physics BSc with two eight-month work terms in medical physics or biophysics related placements. Enrolment is limited and admission is by selection after Level II.
Faculty: Faculty of Science | Department: Department of Physics and Astronomy | Duration: 5 levels (years) with two eight-month co-op work terms; 120 units | Study mode: co-op | Location: Hamilton, Ontario, Canada
Students complete Level II Honours Medical and Biological Physics, then alternate academic terms with co-op work terms (SCIENCE 3WT0, 4WT0, 5WT0) across Levels III to V. Academic content includes soft matter physics, mathematical physics, radioactivity and radiation in medical physics, thermodynamics, quantum mechanics, molecular biophysics, radiation and radioisotope methodology, clinical applications of physics in medicine and focus-area course lists.
Enrolment is limited and admission is by selection; meeting the minimum does not guarantee admission. Selection is based on academic achievement and an interview. Minimum: submission of the online application by the deadline and completion of Level II Honours Medical and Biological Physics (BSc) with a Grade Point Average of at least 5.0, including BIOPHYS 2S03, DATASCI 2G03 (or PHYSICS 2G03), MATH 2C03, PHYSICS 2C03 and 2P03, a multivariable or vector calculus course, and a biochemistry course (BIOCHEM 2B03 and 2BB3 or 2EE3 and 3G03 required overall). Students must be registered full-time, complete SCIENCE 2C00 before the Fall Term of Level III and SCIENCE 3C00 before the first work placement.
Undergraduate applications are submitted through the Ontario Universities' Application Centre (OUAC).
