Science - Integrated Entry - International Year One (UTP Stage II) (Optional Co-op)

Program Description

Science pathway is a student’s first step into realizing their dreams of transforming the world through scientific research, using interactive, theoretical and practical approaches to improving society. In UTP Stage II: Science students choose to focus in one of four different areas: mathematics and data science, experimental science, life science, or general science. These four main areas span eight departments with the opportunity to engage in interdisciplinary studies not only within the Faculty of Science but also across all SFU faculties.

Students who meet the integrated entry English language requirement and the relevant academic requirements for their country, will begin  the UTP Stage II and will take INTG100 and two academic courses in their first term of study. An A grade in INTG100 will exempt students from the academic literacy course. This program is designed to be completed in three terms.

Students who are eligible for transfer will be admitted to the Faculty of Environment at Simon Fraser University, to continue with their Bachelor of Science program in one the following areas of study:

• Mathematics, Statistics, Applied Math, Actuarial Science Intended*, and Data Science
• Chemistry, Physics, and Earth Sciences
• Biomedical Physiology Intended*, Kinesiology Intended*, Molecular Biology & Biochemistry, and Biological Sciences.

*Students in intended pathways will not be admitted directly to the program. Instead, eligible students will be admitted to the Faculty of Science with an intended major and must then apply for approval (i.e. internal transfer) to these programs once at SFU.
