Bachelor of Science (Honours) - Chemistry and Earth Sciences (Optional Co-op)

As a student interested in chemistry, one can enrol in programs and courses in all the main areas of chemistry, including analytical, inorganic, organic, physical, theoretical and environmental chemistry. Concentrations in Nanotechnology and Chemical Toxicology are available. Extensive lab experience is offered, helping students to round out their studies with practical experience.

The Earth Sciences program at Carleton offers students the opportunity to study the Earth’s systems, incorporating knowledge from other sciences including physics, biology and chemistry. Students will learn about processes (such as evolution, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, plate tectonics and mountain building, formation of hydrocarbon reservoirs and mineral deposits) influential in the Earth’s geologic past that establish our present and future global development. The program offers the opportunity to participate in hands-on field courses that can take students to sites throughout Ontario, across Canada and around the world.
