THE LIBERAL ARTS AND SCIENCE DIVISION
(UNIVERSITY TRANSFER PROGRAMME)

COURSE REQUIREMENTS

For students who wish to complete the first two years of the
Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of Science degrees

A student may prepare himself for the B.A. or B.SC. degree either in a General
Course or in an Honours Course. The course requirements for the General Course
enable a student to obtain a broad, general education in several fields of study and
some specialization in one major field. The course of study for an Honours degree,
on the other hand, requires that a student study one or two subjects intensively
during the last two or three years at university. In most cases, students may postpone
the decision as to whether to proceed in a General Course or in an Honours Course
until the end of the fourth term or second year. It must be noted, however, that
requirements for honour degrees or subject majors usually involve certain prere-
quisite courses which should be taken in the first four terms. These prerequisite
courses will be indicated where applicable for each department listed in the following
pages.
