Earth Sciences covers diverse fields of research focused on our planet: its composition, geological history, and surrounding atmospheric conditions. This curriculum integrates subjects from Earth and Atmospheric Sciences, Geophysics, and Paleontology to offer a comprehensive understanding of Earth systems. The Honors Bachelor of Science program provides specialized education in chosen disciplines for students interested in scientific investigation. Each curriculum includes a mandatory research thesis component and requires superior academic performance compared to standard BSc Major programs. While students may complement their studies with a minor from Arts, Native Studies, Business, or Agricultural, Life & Environmental Sciences faculties, this choice limits elective course options. The Honors program does not permit pursuing a double major.
