Academic Program Requirements
Students must complete the program requirements as described in the Specialist Program in Medicinal and Biological Chemistry.

Planning Your Co-op Work Terms & Academics 
Enrollment in a Co-op program requires careful planning of both academics and work terms. Students should consult their Co-op Program Coordinator and Academic Program Advisors, as well as review the standard co-op sequences and course maps available on the Arts & Science Co-op website and Arts and Science Co-op Compass for guidance.

Co-op Work Term Requirements 
Students must successfully complete three Co-op work terms, totaling 12 months in duration, which can be fulfilled through the following options:

• Three 4-month work terms, or  
• One 4-month work term and one 8-month work term, or  
• One 12-month work term.  
   

Students must be available for work terms during the Fall, Winter, and Summer semesters, and are required to complete at least one of their work terms in either the Fall or Winter semester. As a result, students must also take courses during the Summer semesters.  
 
To be eligible for their first work term, students must be enrolled in the program, have completed at least 7.0 credits, and maintain a CGPA of 2.50 or higher.  It is strongly recommended that CHMB16H3 and BIOB12H3 be completed prior to the first work term. In addition to their academic courses, students must also complete the required Co-op preparation courses.  

Co-op Course Requirements 
Co-op students complete the following Co-op-specific courses as part of their degree:  

Co-op Preparation Courses (Completed in First Year):

• COPB50H3  
• COPB54H3/​(COPB51H3)  
   

Work Term Search Courses:

• COPB55H3/​(COPB52H3) (Completed in the semester prior to the first work term)  
• COPC98H3 (Taken in the semester prior to the second work term)  
• COPC99H3 (Taken in the semester prior to the third work term)  

Required Work Term Courses:

• COPC01H3 (First work term)  
• COPC02H3 (Second work term)  
• COPC03H3 (Third work term)  
   

Additional Work Terms & Courses: 
After successful completion of the three required work terms, students interested in additional work terms will require approval from the Arts & Science Co-op Office.  Additional coursework will also be required:

• COPC04H3 (Fourth work term)  
• COPC05H3 (Fifth work term)  

Note: Co-op courses are taken alongside a full course load and are recorded on transcripts as Credit/No Credit (CR/NCR). These courses have no credit weight and are considered additional credits beyond the 20.0 required degree credits. No additional course fee is charged, as registration is included in the Co-op Program fee.  
 
For information on course codes, fees, status in Co-op programs, and certification of completion of Co-op programs, see the Co-operative Programs section and the Arts and Science Co-op section in the UTSC Calendar.
