The BSc Specialization Application is currently closed. It will re-open on May 28, 2024.

You must complete all departmental and faculty requirements listed below by the end of the current Winter Session for any specialization to which you apply.

What’s the difference between the course requirements listed in the Calendar and the specialization eligibility requirements below?

In addition to the first-year courses required for admission, specializations may require second-year courses that have additional first-year prerequisites. Courses required in a specialization are different from eligibility requirements. You should review the specialization completion requirements in the Calendar so you understand what additional courses you will need to take when you are admitted to a particular specialization. Prerequisites are part of the description of each course, which you can find in the Course Schedule. Courses that make up each program specialization are listed in the Calendar. The shorter list of eligibility requirements in the UBC BSc Specialization Application is what you need to have completed before you apply to a specialization.

How should I prioritize my three choices?

Be sure that you are selecting only specializations for which you meet the eligibility requirements. Don't apply for an Honours specialization if you didn't meet the minimum credit and grade requirements. Select the specialization you really want as your first choice. Don't apply for three Honours specializations--they have the smallest enrolment and you're unduly limiting your options.

What is the difference between the Combined Major in Science and Integrated Sciences?

The Combined Major in Science (CMS) emphasizes breadth and includes a laboratory requirement and a mandatory course in science communication. It's ideal for students who wish to develop strong foundations in multiple scientific disciplines rather than specializing in a single science. Integrated Sciences emphasizes depth and interdisciplinarity. Students create their own specialization requirements (with faculty approval). It’s an ideal choice for students who want to explore a specific topic that crosses disciplines. While the CMS is more structured than Integrated Sciences, both offer students flexibility in their choice of courses and disciplines.

What’s the difference between the Major in Mathematics and the Major in Mathematical Sciences?

Mathematics is a powerful tool for solving practical problems and a highly creative field of study. It’s more than just numbers and rules for calculating with them. As a mathematics major, you’ll learn to reveal and explain patterns–whether the pattern appears as electrical impulses in an animal’s nervous system, as fluctuations in stock market prices, or as fine detail of an abstract geometric figure. The ability to simplify complex situations through abstraction and systematic reasoning is a great asset. Mathematics is applied in many fields including business, finance, industry, government, education and social sciences.

Mathematical Sciences integrates math, computer science, and statistics to provide you with a strong foundation of skills and knowledge. While maintaining a strong core in mathematics, the program allows you to emphasize mathematics, statistics, computer science, or any combination of the three.
