Important information when you are following your Plan requirements; remember that there are courses you must select from the appropriate LISC List.

All are found in the Arts and Science Academic Calendar

Follows List A. The Life Sciences Major Plan is recommended to students who wish to pursue a wider range of study than is possible with the Life Sciences Specialization Plan. Access to specialized courses at the 400 level may be limited, with priority given to students in the Life Sciences Specialization Plan program.

LISC SSP

Biomedical Discovery (BMDS) follows List C
Biomedical Sciences (BMSS) follows List D and E
Cancer Research (CANC) follows List F
Cardiorespiratory (CRSS) follows List G
Drug Development and Human Toxicology (DDHT) follows List J and K
Neuroscience (NSCI) follows List L

SUB-PLANS

BMDS: The Biomedical Discovery Sub‐plan is recommended to students who wish to gain advanced laboratory experience or experiential learning in Anatomy or Epidemiology/Public Health or Immunology or Microbiology or Pathology or Pharmacology or Physiology.

BMSS: The Biomedical Sciences Sub‐plan provides more flexibility in choice of options and electives than other sub‐plans, and is recommended to students who wish to obtain a wide‐ranging foundation in the life sciences with opportunities for advanced study in selected topics.

CANC: The Cancer Sub‐plan is recommended to students who wish to proceed to graduate studies and research in Cancer Biology and Genetics. Students intending to take this sub‐plan should consult the list of option courses required for completion of the program, and consider appropriate courses in Year 3.

CRSS: The Cardiorespiratory Sub‐plan is recommended to students who wish to proceed to graduate studies and research in the cardiovascular and respiratory sciences. Students intending to take this sub‐plan should complete PHGY 355/3.0 in Year 3.

DDHT: The Drug Discovery and Human Toxicology Sub‐plan is recommended to students who are interested in enriched study in the fields of drug discovery and development as well as in mechanisms of drug and toxicant action. Students will gain advanced knowledge which will make them competitive for graduate studies and marketable in particular employment areas (e.g. government regulatory agencies and pharmaceutical companies).

NSCI: The Neuroscience Sub-plan is recommended to students who wish to proceed to graduate studies and research in the neurosciences. Students intending to take this option should complete either NSCI 323/3.0 or NSCI 324/3.0 in year 3. It is strongly recommended that students in this Sub-plan complete both courses
